Chapter 6. in Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900), 2006, pp 111-135 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Although Friedrich Nietzsche seldom is considered for his economic thought, he in fact addressed many of the same problems as the German Historical School in the period, and at times discussed them explicitly. By studying Nietzsche’s political writings in the context of the ongoing debates about Marxism, laissez-faire, and the ‘Social Question’ in Germany and Italy, we hope to shed light on the broad spectrum of resistance against the extremes of communism and liberalism in late-19th century Europe.
