| book description |

It is often asserted that postmodernism emerged from 'leftist' Nietzsche-interpretations, but it is rarely explored. This book investigates how Deleuze and Foucault read Nietzsche and apply a hermeneutics of innocence to his philosophy that erases the elitist, anti-democratic, and anti-socialist dimensions. This misreading also affects their own theory and impairs the claim to develop a radical critique. The late Foucaultâ€™s turn to self-care techniques merges a neo-Nietzschean approach with the ideologies of neoliberalism. Rehmannâ€™s critique is not directed against the endeavor to take suggestions from some of Nietzscheâ€™s astute intuitions, but rather against the conformism to use him as a symbolic capital without revealing his hierarchical obsession. This book is an updated and extended version of Postmoderner Links-Nietzscheanismus: Deleuze & Foucault. Eine Dekonstruktion, originally published in German by Argument Verlag GmbH, 2004, 978-3-88619-298-4.
