Book description
Deleuzian Encounters brings together sixteen accessible,
thought-provoking essays that examine the practical and ethical implications
of Deleuze's philosophy for different contemporary social issues. Topics
explored include: the environment, terrorism, refugees, indigenous
reconciliation, gender, suicide, intellectual disability, injecting drug
use, classroom teaching and global activism. Each contribution provides
practical examples of how to make use of Deleuze's thought in social
research, and offers fresh insights into the creative and innovative
potentials Deleuze's philosophy holds for social thought and action.
