Nietzsche's Affirmative Ethics

2004
Abstract Nietzsche is often considered “the great destroyer,” a harsh critic with nothing positive to put in the place of what he tries to destroy (morality, Christianity). In other words, he is considered a “nihilist.” I suggest that he is not this at all but rather an affirmative philosopher who, like the ancients, takes living well as

Affirmative action and redistributive ethics

Journal of Business Ethics, 1986
Management faces complex race related issues in which groups arguing entitlement appear to claim benefits historically enjoyed by others.

Nietzsche's Affirmative Morality: An Ethics of Virtue
