In a clear and incisive analysis, Rehmann shows that this misreading also affects their own theory and impairs the ability to develop a radical critique from it. Thus the late Foucault's turn to self-care techniques merges a neo-Nietzschean approach with the ideologies of neoliberalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRehmann's critique is not directed against the endeavor to take suggestions from some of Nietzsche's astute intuitions, but rather against the near universal tendency to use him as a symbolic capital without admitting his hierarchical obsession and other political flaws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is an updated and extended version of \u003cem\u003ePostmoderner Links-Nietzscheanismus: Deleuze and Foucault.
