Das Schaffen neuer Werte ist für Nietzsche gleichbedeutend mit der Umwertung älterer Werte. Als Instanz dieser Umwertung begreift er eine als Praxis verstandene Kultur. Werte gehen für ihn aus einer individuellen wie individuierenden kulturellen Praxis hervor. Nur durch die Verdrängung dieser Praxis nehmen sie den Anschein des Ewigen, Unwandelbaren und Objektiven an. Der Beitrag stellt Nietzsches Theorie einer Umwertung der Werte in ihrer kulturphilosophischen Relevanz vor, diskutiert ihre metaphysik kritischen Implikationen und weist auf ihr Erbe in zeitgenössischen Kulturtheorien (Arthur Danto, Boris Groys, René Girard) hin. Abschließend wird das Verhältnis der Umwertung der Werte zum Christentum diskutiert. For Nietzsche the creation of new values is nothing else than the transvaluation of older values. As the driving force behind this transvaluation he distinguishes a praxis which he understands first of all as a cultural praxis. From his point of view values are the result of an individual and individuating cultural practice. Only through the repression of this practice, values start to appear eternal, unchangeable, and objective. The paper explains the relevance of Nietzsche's theory of a revaluation of values for Cultural Theory, discusses its implications for criticizing metaphysics and discloses its influence on contemporary cultural theories (Arthur Danto, Boris Groys, René Girard). Finally I try to show how Nietzsche's revaluation of values depends on a certain reading of Christianity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Die Haupttendenz der Beiträge, Nietzsches Auffassung über die Werte (Entstehung, Inhalte, Wandel) im Kontext von Kulturgeschichte und moderner Kultur zu diskutieren, ist sehr produktiv. Die philosophischen Begriff e müssen aber historisch und inhaltlich konkreter bestimmt werden, um die Differenz zwischen Nietzsche und seinen modernen Interpretationen in den aktuellen Diskursen deutlicher zu machen. The main trend of all papers to discuss Nietzsche's conception of values (genesis, contents, change) in the context of cultural history and modern culture will be very productive. But it is necessary to define the philosophical terms more stringently in order to make the difference between Nietzsche and his modern interpretations stronger in the contemporary disputes.

Using Tõnu Viik's statement of the relationship between philosophy and culture as a framework, aer discussing both nature and world, I investigate how culture aects the ways human beings live in nature and the world, then the implications of living in culture for philosophy and human knowledge, and nally the philosophy of culture, what it is or might be and its place as a focal point for a philosophical understanding of human life and activity.
