Description:This article moves forward into the comprehension of the political and cultural senses of the global crisis of capitalism from a critical point of view, specifically focused on the cultural criticism that pervades Nietzsche’s philosophy. The decadence of traditional religiosity is assessed as a result of the success of the peculiar faith on capital rather than as an effect of illustrated secularization. This faith is thought to be a consummation of decadent nihilism, a “believing in nothing” that reveals the unpolitical nature of the contemporary system of production/destruction.
