Deleuze, Guattari and the Production of the New

Description

Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari have arguably gone further than anyone in contemporary philosophy in affirming a philosophy of creation, one that both establishes and encourages a clear ethical imperative: to create the new. <br><br>In this remarkable undertaking, these two thinkers have created a fresh engagement of thought with the world. This important collection of essays attempts to explore and extend the creative rupture that Deleuze and Guattari produce in the <em>Capitalism and Schizophrenia</em> project. <br><br>The essays in this volume, all by leading thinkers and theorists, extend Deleuze and Guattari’s project by offering creative experiments in constructing new communities – of ideas and objects, experiences and collectives – that cohere around the interaction of philosophy, the arts and the political realm. <em>Deleuze, Guattari and the Production of the New</em> produces new perspectives on Deleuze and Guattari’s work by emphasising its relevance to the contemporary intersection of aesthetics and political theory, thereby exploring a pressing contemporary problem: the production of the new.
