Gilles Deleuze was arguably the twentieth century’s most spatial philosopher - not only did he contribute to a plethora of new concepts to engage space, space was his very means of doing philosophy. He said everything takes place on a plane of immanence, envisaging a vast desert-like space populated by concepts moving about like nomads. Deleuze made philosophy spatial and gave us the concepts of smooth and striated, nomadic and sedentary, deterritorialisation and reterritorialisation, the fold, as well as many others to enable us to think spatially.This collection takes up the challeng

Deleuze was intensely aware of the need for philosophy to take an active part in shaping and critiquing the world. Philosophy, as Deleuze saw it, engages in politics by inventing new concepts and using them as weapons against opinion, the ultimate barrier to thought. He did not specify a particular political program, nor espouse a particular political dogma. Politics for Deleuze was always a matter of experiment and invention in the search for the revolutionary path that would finally deliver us from the baleful enchantments of capitalism. Deleuze and Politics brings together some of the most

Deleuze and the Social is the first book to focus on the implications of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari’s thinking on the social sciences and organization. Topics include order, subjectivity, art, capitalism, and the construction of a social ontology. Each chapter shows the strength of a Deleuzian and Guattarian approach and raises further questions. How is social order constituted? How is resistance possible between the rush of capitalism and the overcoding of the State? How are thinking and living possible?

A major paradigm shift in debates on sexuality, Deleuze and Queer Theory marks a shift away from discourse on identity and signification and a move toward a radical new conception of bodily materialism. For too long queer theory has been dominated by the work of Judith Butler and a focus on performativity. In these essays, a critical engagement with the work of Deleuze and Guattari shape a new queer theory, one that revisits the very term of "queer," rethinks the sex-gender distinction as implied in queer theory, explores queer temporalities, and considers the non/rereading of the homosexual

This is the first book to use complexity theory to open up the ’geophilosophy’ developed by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari in A Thousand Plateaus, Anti-Oedipus and What is Philosophy? The Guide enables readers to grasp the basics of complexity theory (the study of self-organisation and emergence in material systems) while the Glossary eases the difficulty of applying this science to Deleuze and Guattari’s often perplexing terminology. Written in a clear style, by a philosopher and a geographer that maintains a practical orientation and an interdisciplinary focus. Deleu
