According to the interpretation suggested here, Nietzsche does not advance a substantive normative ethics, but proposes, based on his ontological idea of will to power, an instrumentalist theory of value. He is not a realist about value—according to him, nothing is intrinsically valuable. However, things, actions, beliefs, and values can be evaluated with reference to their capaci…Read more

  • "Philosophos Agonistes": Nietzsche as Exemplar and Educator
    Dissertation, Emory University. 1997.
