Deleuze and Guattaris Philosophy of Becoming-Revolutionary by Raniel S.M. Reyes
English | Jun 1, 2020 | ISBN: 1527548651 | 245 pages | PDF | 2 MB
This book reconstructs Deleuze and Guattaris micropolitics toward a philosophy of becoming-revolutionary. It provides novel ways to comprehend their political philosophy, through a critical engagement with Chantal Mouffes theorization of radical democracy, Michael Hardt and Negris diagnosis of Empire, Franco Berardis analysis of semiocapitalism, the Philippine Party-List System Act, and the ASEAN Integration Project, to name a few. These initiatives aim to examine, expand, and challenge Deleuzo-Guattarian philosophy against the backdrop of various present-day predicaments and practices that perpetually allow people to choose their own oppression. Furthermore, the book embarks on an invigorating journey through philosophy, politics, cultural studies, and contemporary events, searching for new modes of thinking and resistance that carry with them the radical potentials of a revolution-to-come. Through the philosophy of becoming-revolutionary, the book endorses the cultivation of new concepts, subjectivities, and relations, capable of subverting advanced capitalism and other kinds of ethical fascism toward a people- and world-to-come.
