Nietzsche's Political Skepticism by Tamsin Shaw
Political theorists have long been frustrated by Nietzsche's work. Although he develops profound critiques of morality, culture, and religion, it is difficult to spell out the precise political implications of his insights. This book claims, Nietzsche raises profound questions about political legitimacy and political authority in the modern world.
"Shaw has written a very clear and easily intelligible book addressing one main question: given Nietzsche?s distrust of the authority of the state, what alternative source of normative authority does he offer?"--CA. Colmo, Choice "Shaw's book is well written and well argued and Nietzsche scholars and social and political theorists would benefit from his insights."--Richard Findler, European Legacy
