This paper studies the notion of will in Nietzsche’s philosophy. In order to do so, we started this article reading the aphorisms found in the works of the German philosopher that belong to the last two phases of his production: the intermediate and the late stage. At the same time, from the attainment of the speculative notion of will, we try to discuss the results obtained by researches in the area of experimental psychology. The analysis of Nietzsche’s notion of will, as an idea that contradicts free will and its attribute of a constitutive element of morality, indicates the reasons for Nietzsche’s critique of free will. Finally, after the refutation of free will performed by the will as a necessity, the idea of innocence of the becoming as a presupposition for the transvaluation project for all values.
