Abstract
The public debate at the end of the postmodernist era shows a decline of interest in politics, whereas discourses about ethics, religious norms, and values triumph. Some master-narratives circulate, which reiterate familiar themes: One is the inevitability of capitalist market economies as the historically dominant form of human progress (Fukuyama, 1989, 2002). Another is a contemporary brand of biological essentialism, under the cover of “the selfi sh gene” (Dawkins, 1976) and new evolutionary psychology. Yet another resonant refrain is that God is not dead. Nietzsche’s claim rings hollows across the spectrum of contemporary global politics.
