Nietzschean criticism refocusing to democracy from the ecological reformulation of the political
Keywords:
Nietzsche, democracy, ecology, politics, lifeAbstract
The thesis of this paper is that the consideration of the political from the ecological perspective, could qualify the Nietzschean critique of democracy, to the point of making us perceive an intimate closeness between Nietzsche's philosophy and democracy understood as a constituted political form In the game of becoming, proper to living tissue. Since its ecological reformulation, Democratic politics would not only not be in contradiction with the political ideas of the "aristocratic" thinker of becoming, but, on the contrary It could be the means to achieve the Nietzschean elevation of life, and vice versa, the struggle for the realization of democratic political orders and a policy that values the richness and fragility of life on Earth seems to require, more than never, deepen its critique of democracy and attend to its call to recover the creative nature of politics.
