Document Summary
Hegel - mediation between universal and particular: mediation of con ict, difference, and competition. Marx - subsumption of particular into universal: reduction/elimination of con ict, difference, competition. will not eliminate con ict but will mediate it. Communism, socialism, the utopia that marx wants to see arrive is the place that people need to think of themselves as a communal sense rather than individual. Nietzsche - subsumption of universal into particular: i create values. Does not think universal values are important. All very different but in a similar structure. Making money makes struggle and class wars historical materialism cultural/aristocratic. Creates war in people that don"t value art, nolbility, honor. Progressive suppression of nobility, honor and aristocracy attack on metaphysics and religion all there is is matter irrational/ chaotic. Thought to be a cultural crisis, tied to thewests" final realization of what god is dead means all there is is matter rational/ predictable. Be able to achieve greatness, embrace aristocratic values.
