Editors’ Foreword: Nietzsche and Democracy
Editors’ Foreword: Nietzsche and Democracy

Summary/Abstract: “As another American presidential election looms large over 2024, it seems appropriate to reflect on what Nietzsche has to say about democracy, both as a political form of organization, narrowly construed, and its broader cultural implications.” Thus, began the call for papers for the present issue of The Agonist. With the recent American presidential election now come and gone, we can only look back on the months leading up to it and its aftermath. No doubt Nietzsche’s scathing sentiments on democracy will seem prescient in light of the electoral victories of our populist party.
