Abstract

GUTIERREZ, CARLOS b. The Critique to Democracy in Nietzsche and Gómez Dávila. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2008, vol.57, n.136, pp.111-125. ISSN 0120-0062.

This paper offers a comparison between the aristocratic radicalism of Nietzsche and that of the Colombian philosopher, Nicolás Gómez Dávila, in order to point out their points of contact and their differences. This leads to the analysis of the uneven reception of their ideas, which at the same time serves to situate Gómez Dávila´s thought in the South American cultural context -particularly the Colombian one.

Keywords : Nietzsche; Nicolás Gómez Dávila; aristocratic radicalism; Latin American thought; Colombian thought.
