Nietzsche y Foucault sobre el Poder, la Filosofía y la Verdad: Una conversación con Vanessa Lemm

As part of the dossier of CONfines’ 41st number, dedicated to Michel Foucault on the 40th anniversary of his death, we had the opportunity to interview the renowned philosopher and academic Vanessa Lemm.1 Professor Lemm is Deputy Vice-Chancellor at the University of Greenwich and editor of the journal Nietzsche-Studien. She earned her PhD in philosophy from The New School for Social Research and has held academic positions in the United States, Germany, Chile, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Among her published works are the books Nietzsche’s Animal Philosophy: Culture, Politics, and the Animality of the Human Being (2009) and Homo Natura: Nietzsche, Philosophical Anthropology and Biopolitics (2020), both translated into Spanish. She also edited Michel Foucault: Neoliberalism and Biopolitics (2010), and co-edited The Government of Life: Foucault, Biopolitics and Neoliberalism (2014) with Miguel Vatter, and more recently The Viral Politics of Covid-19: Nature, Home and Planetary Health (2022).
