No Gods! No Masters!: From Ontological to Political Anarchism
View through CrossRef
The aim of this chapter is to clarify one the most significant misunderstandings of Deleuze and Guattari’s political theory: the difference between their conceptions of ontological anarchism and political anarchism. The author’s thesis is that equating these two kinds anarchism undermines the theory and practice of political anarchism. He also argues more generally that there is no necessary relation between ontological anarchism and political anarchism and, finally, shows the practical and analytic strength of a strictly political theory of anarchism derived from Deleuze and Guattari’s work.
