Ask A Left Nietzschean: Is Nietzsche's "Amor Fati" a Reactionary or Revolutionary Concept?

Support Donovan's work: https://www.donovanmiyasaki.com/

Today on the show with us we have Donovan Miyasaki, Professor of Philosophy at Wright State University and author of a two-volume study, Nietzsche's Immoralism: Politics as First Philosophy and Politics After Morality: Toward a Nietzschean Left put out by Palgrave McMillan. This series argues that Nietzsche’s most important ethical and political commitments are better realized through a form of radical egalitarianism rather than through the aristocratic figure imagined by Nietzsche himself. The concepts in focus are amor fati, the pathos of distance vs. the pathos of difference, and the will to power.
