Smith returns alongside Jacob Vangeest to discuss Laruelle's view on Nietzsche and Nietzsche's influence upon the milieu of 20th century French thought, which includes thinkers such as Bataille, Deleuze & Guattari, Foucault, and others. Our brush with Laruelle's 'Nietzsche Contra Heidegger' involves a discussion of Laruelle's theory of 'political materialism' in addition to various political appropriations of Nietzsche's thought.
