in scandinavia, spain, italy and japan. what i can see some of the things we are seeing in america are happening elsewhere. what i think is particular to the american reading is that i have very few nietzsche interpreters who are breeding nietzsche as a political thinker. by politics, i mean that with a capital letter. they are reading nietzsche. he is a cultural critic of democracy. that is to say he is a critic of the types of democracy. not some great visionary of a new kind of politics, which we see in russia and italy, the fascism and mussolini and with nazi party. there may be liberals who read the nietzsche, we see both of those. but they are reading him more as a cultural critic of the human type that democracy fosters. i think that is very different. and i think that is very particular. it is again, it is about american culture. nietzsche commentator on american soil. but not necessarily on our political system as such. the other thing that i would just signal, and danny was kind enough to reference it in the intro

is a worldwide phenomenon, and there have been works on nietzsche in germany, in france, in sand scandinavia,n spain, in italy, in japan. um, and so what i can see is some of the things that we're seeing in the america are happening elsewhere. what i think is particular to the american reading is that i have very few three chi interpreters -- nietzsche interpreters who are reading nietzsche as a political thinker. and by that -- politics with a capital p. they're reading nietzsche -- if he's a critic of democracy, he is a cultural critic of democracy. that is to say he is a critic of the kinds of human types that democracy fosters. does that make sense? so they're reading nietzsche not as some great visionary of a new kind of politics which we, of course, see in russia, in italy with fascism and mussolini and, of course, with the nazis. we don't see that in america. that is to say there may be conservatives who read nietzsche or, you know, liberals who read nietzsche, and we see both of those, but they're reading him more as a cultural critic of the human type that democracy fosters. and i t

scandinavia are famous for the quality of their safety net is to the idea that europe problems is because they have a safety net, requires you not to know much about europe and many commentators qualify. having said that, the crisis is very real in europe and i would urge all of you to pay attention because europe is a very, very important player in the world. in many ways, the number one player, the united states is still the biggest country. if you take the market together, smart people in more product. that is a very important part of the world economy, as important as the united states. it is also the place in the world that has had more violent warfare amongst its members over the last century anybody else. two world wars a stupefying destructiveness. it's therefore a continent that is devoted to trying to do something about the severe anxiety they have, just to raise an issue that you might want to debate at some point here at city life bookstore, whether there might be an unfortunate connection string capitalism, the dominant system and a scale of warfare is mine pending at the sam

central banks in scandinavia getting concerned. you obviously can't have everybody needing to devalue their currency to try to get a gain in the export market. and if you look it at the various regions, if you look at europe as opposed to u.s., you would say there's a much greater need for europe to devalue the euro to try to generate some export growth there because they're already in recession. same would apply for the uk, they're much more reliant on external growth than they are domestically. so there isn't that strong a case for the u.s. to need to devalue the dollar. >> what the fed seems to be doing is coming out with insurance prices. because if the the u.s. economy slips below stall speed and ism data suggests that might happen and that really does impact everybody else in the world, so is it right maybe to have an insurance policy, is it the right insurance policy? >> and i guess the answer is they're doing what they can. we've always raised questions how effective this policy is. the biggest beneficiary was oil prices wh

anything the logic runs the other way and the other parts of europe that are doing quite nicely or scandinavia and they are famous for the quality of their care safety net so the idea that europe's problems are because they have a safety net requires you not to know much about europe and many american commentators qualified on that score. having said that though, the crisis is very real in europe and i would urge all of you to pay attention because europe is a very very important player in the world. in many ways is the number one player yet the united states is still the biggest country. if you take the european common market together its more people in more than the united states and this is a very important part of the world economy, as important as united states. it is also the place the in a world that has had more violent warfare amongst its members over the last century than anybody else, two world wars of stupefying destructiveness and it's therefore a continent that is devoted to trying to do something about the severe anxiety they have just to raise an issue that you might want to de

it's much more common in european nations, especially in scandinavia. and it's even more common in japan >> so, thinking of the international dimension of that, i thought it was interesting that though you are saying that -- and he made the point in the book that living alone is occurring in other places, that the sort of context of living alone is different between those countries in some ways and i was struck by the northern european example and the societies are different. >> guest: absolutely. one of the things i learned is in order to have the freedom to choose to live alone, in order to be independent you need to be well-connected, you need to be strongly supported. it turns out people live alone not in places they can afford to but also in countries that have invested collectively and producing a kind of society that supports individualism and this is the surprise. what we think of the scandinavian country meeting of the socialist kind of policies, a big welfare states, the collective more than i think we typically do the individual. but it turns
