Abstract:
"Paul Patton synthesizes the full range of Deleuze's work, from his early works such as Nietzsche and Philosophy to the more recent What Is Philosophy?, and including central works such as Difference and Repetition and anti-Oedipus. Patton shows the importance of Deleuze for poststructuralist political thought and presents an outstandingly clear treatment of fundamental concepts in Deleuze's work, such as difference, power, desire, multiplicities, nomadism, capture and deterritorialisation. Deleuze and the Political demonstrates Deleuze's relevance to key issues in contemporary social and political theory as well as a range of practical political concerns." "Deleuze and the Political provides the first full-length overview of Deleuze's relation to political thought. It is an introduction to some of the key themes in the work of this major thinker. It is essential reading for anyone studying Delueze and for students of politics, philosophy, sociology, history, anthropology, psychoanalysis, literature, film, cultural and postcolonial studies."--BOOK JACKET.
