Summary
The book concludes with a summary of how the greater part of Nietzsche’s mature thoughts on conflict form a systematic whole. In other words, we review how he can be said to prescribe destructive, agonistic, exploitative and exclusionary forms of conflict under distinct yet compatible sets of conditions. I then survey some of the ethical implications of this study, and gesture toward how, in light of our findings, we might profitably reformulate our conception of conflict. Though I advance a systematic reading of Nietzsche’s writings in this book, I do not wish to give the impression that my reading is free of remainders; I therefore close by highlighting some of the anomalies and tensions generated by my exegesis.
