INTRODUCTION: Opposed to everyone, Nietzsche has met with remarkably little opposition. In fact, his reputation has suffered only one apparent reverse—his enthusiastic adoption by the Nazis. But, save in Germany, Nietzsche’s association with the horrors of the Second World War and the Holocaust has served chiefly to stimulate further curiosity. Of course, the monster has had to be tamed, and Nietzsche’s thought has been cleverly reconstructed so as perpetually to evade the evils perpetrated in his name. Even those philosophies for which he consistently reserved his most biting contempt—socialism, feminism and Christianity—have sought to appropriate their tormentor. Almost everybody now claims Nietzsche as one of their own; he has become what he most wanted to be—irresistible.

Cohen, Jonathan R. "Nietzsche's Elitism and the Cultural Division of Labor," in Rending and Renewing the Social Order; Hudson, Yeager (ed.) (Lewiston: Mellen Press, 1996).

ABSTRACT: Some have recently tried to show Nietzsche to be egalitarian, despite his infamous elitism. The truth, however, lies between: Nietzsche outlines (in "Human, All-Too-Human") a division of labor between society's productive members, well-ensconced in their culture, and its "avant-garde", the free spirits. The latter contribute innovative ideas which become the trelliswork on which a society's culture grows; without them there would be stagnation. Nietzsche's elitism is a calculated strategy to promote the development of this "avant-garde"; the egalitarian elements in his work reflect the fact that the hierarchy envisioned is neither exclusive in its membership nor limited in its benefits.

Roche, Mark W. "National Socialism and the Disintegration of Values: Reflections on Nietzsche, Rosenberg, and Broch," Journal of Value Inquiry. 26(3) (1992): 367-380.

ABSTRACT: Nietzsche's perspectivism is logically incoherent and passes over into power positivism. The philosopher of National Socialism, Alfred Rosenberg, is shown to share Nietzsche's position. National Socialism arises not from an absolute philosophy but from a relativistic position that has passed over into power positivism: because there are no universal truths, one subject or group of subjects has the right to assert its irrational truths over others. A literary analogue is evident in Broch's "The Sleepwalkers", where we see the development from an undermining of truth (Bertrand) to the arbitrary assertion of truth (Esch) and the arbitrary assertion of power (Huguenau).

ABSTRACT: Despite Nietzsche's well-deserved reputation for anti-communism, anti-socialism and his critique of democratic values, in his earlier writings, especially "Schopenhauer as educator", "Dawn", and "Human, All Too Human", he criticized what could be called the German "military-industrial complex," criticized his age for its social atomism, and lambasted the excesses of the capitalist class. an attempt is made to show that he was familiar with the main ideas of Marx through F A Lange and E Duhring. From time to time, he expresses Marxian socialist sentiments which reflect his indirect familiarity with the central ideas of Marx.

INTRODUCTION: Few thinkers have enjoyed such widespread appeal over the last forty years as Nietzsche. The instrumentalization of the Nazi period seemingly left behind—Lukács’s dissenting voice notwithstanding—Nietzsche’s almost Heraclitean metaphors and images, visceral incarnations of some mythological wisdom which always seems to be in excess of itself, have fascinated theorists from the whole range of the political spectrum. For some, such as Kaufmann and Rorty, Nietzsche dissolved philosophy into an aesthetic play and a relativism entirely in accord with, but lying beyond, the values of the liberal democracies. For others—in the so-called ‘New Nietzsche’ emerging from post-war France—his critique of the overweening pretensions of the western philosophical tradition seemed to offer the possibility to begin philosophy again, as a post-philosophy. While this current of interpretation was not too shy to appropriate some of Nietzsche’s concepts for a radical critique of contemporary bourgeois society—one thinks in the first instance of Foucault, Derrida and Deleuze—its presupposition was that Nietzsche himself was an essentially apolitical philosopher, an innocent victim of right-wing distortion whose ‘indeterminacy’ permitted an attempt to expropriate him for the Left.
