The rise of populism, cynicism, fanaticism and fundamentalism challenges us to reconsider the problem of
ressentiment. Characterized by Nietzsche as the self-poisoning of the will through internalising trauma in the form of a postponed and imaginary revenge, the concept of
ressentiment is making a comeback in political
discourse.
Unlike resentment, the feeling of injustice,
ressentiment is an intrinsically polemical notion. It implies a political drama in which there is no inherent good sense in its application and no universal criterion. Drawing on psychoanalysis, political theory, media theory and philosophy, this book examines a wide variety of ideological contexts, offering an examination of the divergent senses in which the concept of
ressentiment is used today.
