Deleuze and Law

A wild and savage creation of principle’ is how Deleuze defined the practice of law as perpetual experimentation, or what he called, Universal Jurisprudence.

Rather than a guarantee against political, economic, or social odds, this collection of thirteen essays gives insights into Gilles Deleuze’s philosophy of law which experiments with new forms of politics, economics and society. This book shows that law has never been a conservative force but in fact is the most progressive and experimental force of the Modern Age. It explores the basic features of this universal jurisprudence, the mutual becoming of law and philosophy, for the first time.
