Anarchism And Friedrich Nietzsche
The relation between anarchism and Friedrich Nietzsche has been ambiguous. Even though Nietzsche criticized anarchists,In ''Beyond Good and Evil'' (6.2:126) he refers to "anarchist dogs" his thought proved influential for many of them. As such " ere were many things that drew anarchists to Nietzsche: his hatred of the state; his disgust for the mindless social behavior of 'herds'; his anti-Christianity; his distrust of the effect of both the market and the State on cultural production; his desire for an ' übermensch'—that is, for a new human who was to be neither master nor slave".
