Deleuze and Guattari and Fascism

The philosophy that Deleuze and Guattari propose is engaged and situated and requires us to map urgent issues, not by opposing ourselves to it, but by mapping how it is part of the everyday, and of ourselves.The global rise of fascism today demands careful analysis. The concepts and themes that Deleuze and Guattari gave us, within the scope of their work, is immensely helpful in capturing its micropolitics and macropolitics. The range of international contributors to this volume have a keen eye on the practices of fascism today and, in line with Deleuze’s thinking, they show us how fascism works.Organised into three parts: the first part - 21st century fascisms - focuses on the global threats of technologies and algorithmic realities; the second part - situated fascisms - analyses fascisms at work in different parts of the contemporary world; the third part deals with patriarchal fascism and offers concrete case-studies of sexualized and genderized modes of oppression.Rosi Braidotti is a Distinguished University Professor at Utrecht University.
