Nietzsche and Emancipatory Politics: Queer Theory as Anti-Morality
     Release time: 2019-04-29

 

 

C. Heike Schotten

 

Abstract

This article offers an emancipatory appropriation of Nietzsche’s work, making the case that the founding of the field of queer theory exemplifies and proffers a liberatory Nietzschean praxis of anti-morality. This argument requires reading Nietzsche’s work from the perspective of the oppressed and (re-)reading queer theory as part of the project of critical theory.
