Other titles: Nietzsche on law
Description: Until recently the notion prevailed among scholars that Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) was not a political and social philosopher but a philosopher of the individual, the creative genius. Due to this perception his insights into the law and the legal system have so far been ignored. These insights, scattered throughout his writings, excel in clear and fluent writing - a trait that does not always characterize his other writings. This collection, which brings together for the first time Nietzsche's writings in the field of law and the philosophy of law, is organized by topics, including: the human longing for a disciplined life, the source of the law, the state, the offender, free will, sin, guilt and punishment. Nietzsche's intuition and sharpness have given rise to insights that are given explicit and systematic expression so that the discussion of his thought is challenging and thought-provoking even today. Reading his writings contributes to the acquisition of the ability to observe the reality that surrounds us with critical eyes. It is a special skill that requires training and practice, and the practice of Nietzsche's writings in general, and especially his discussions of legal matters, uniquely sharpens this skill. -- Excerpted from back cover; Google Translate.
