A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia
Pages: 632
|Published: 1 Jan 1980
Description
Gilles Deleuze (1925 - 1995) was Professor of Philosophy at the University of Paris VIII. He is a key figure in poststructuralism, and one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. Felix Guattari (1930 - 1992) was a psychoanalyst at the la Borde Clinic, as well as being a major social theorist and radical activist.
A Thousand Plateaus is part of Deleuze and Guattari's landmark philosophical project, Capitalism and Schizophrenia - a project that still sets the terms of contemporary philosophical debate. A Thousand Plateaus provides a compelling analysis of social phenomena and offers fresh alternatives for thinking about philosophy and culture. Its radical perspective provides a toolbox for nomadic thought and has had a galvanizing influence on today's anti-capitalist movement.
