Nietzsche and the Power of the Politician

Abstract

In his work, the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche has made numerous frontal attacks on socialist political thought, considering it as a form of political manifestation of Christianity, which he calls the main component of the weakening of human power. However, in spite of its manifestations, some of its concepts and ideas stand in a promising way with certain revolutionary principles established by Marx and Engels. In view of these perspectives, the present text will seek to define how Marxism can be articulated with Nietzschean philosophy, for which the concept of the multitude, elaborated by Negri and Hardt, acts in a very significant way.
