Statt von einem Guattari-Effekt auf Deleuze muss man von einem Guattari-Deleuze-Effekt sprechen, um ein wechselseitiges Einwirken in einem gemeinsamen Projekt zu beschreiben, das mit dem Herausgehen aus der klassischen Psychoanalyse beginnt und in den Umbau der Philosophie in der Öffnung auf ihr Außen mündet. Dieser Umbau lässt das Paradigma der Interpretation ebenso hinter sich wie jenes der Struktur. In der Kritik an Lacan vollziehen Deleuze und Guattari die Abkehr vom Postulat des Primats der Sprache als Struktur und eines durch sie immer schon konstituierten und vom Realen ebenso wie von kollektiven Individuationsprozessen abgeschnittenen Subjekts. Die heterogenen Ausdrucksmaterien Hjelmslevs, die das Aufbrechen der Opposition von Sprachzeichen und Materie ermöglichen sowie die Konzepte der Wunschmaschine und mehr noch des Gefüges eröffnen den Weg hin zu einem Politisch-Werden der Philosophie als Wiederaneignung der Produktionsmittel kollektiver Subjektivität. ; In order to understand the collaborators' mutual impact in a joint project that began with Deleuze and Guattari's transgression of classical psychoanalysis and advanced to their complete remodeling of philosophy, the notion of a »Guattari-Deleuze-effect« is more adequate than the presumption an unilateral »Guattari-effect« upon Deleuze. Furthermore, Deleuze's and Guattari's concerted efforts leave the paradigms of »interpretation« and »structure« behind; in their critique of Lacan, Deleuze and Guattari turn away from the primate of language as structure and the postulate of an always already constituted subject that is cut off both from the real and from collective processes of individuation. Finally, the concept of a heterogeneous »matter of expression,« which, borrowed from Hjelmslev, allows opening up the opposition between linguistic sign and matter, as well as the concepts of »desiring-machine« and »assemblage«, clear the way towards a becoming-political of philosophy, understood as reappropriation of collective subjectivity's means of ...

The following essay takes the topic of this special issue as an opportunity to not just investigate Deleuze's "Postscript on Control Societies," but to look more generally at the text's place within his work as a whole. Indeed, as various authors have observed, there are a number of aspects that clearly distinguish the essay from the bulk of Deleuze's other writings. First, what the Postscript aims at is a very direct and immediate "diagnosis of the present" (Foucault 1999: 91). Despite its brevity, the essay therefore entails a wide-ranging account of the (social, economic, cultural, and technological) 'system' which was about to take hold when Deleuze wrote the essay (1990) – and which still seems pervasive today. Second, the Postscript represents one of the few instances where Deleuze addresses new media, the digital, cyberspace, and computers: technologies, that is, which in the last few decades have thoroughly transformed the world we live in (cf. Galloway 2012). Third, while Deleuze is usually considered to be a thinker of affirmative creation and a joyous politics of difference and becoming, the Postscript may be the text that most evidently lends itself to discovering not only a more contemporary, but also a somewhat 'darker' Deleuze (cf. Culp 2016). For although it underlines the necessity of "finding new weapons" and developing "new forms of resistance" – pointing out that the question is not "whether the old or new system is harsher or more bearable" (Deleuze 1995: 178) – one can argue that the Postscript's general perspective and tone is in fact more bleak and pessimistic than most of Deleuze's other writings.

Recent political theory has shifted decidedly towards ontology, the 'science of being', and thus towards examining fundamental concepts of identity, difference, space, and time. This new focus has reinvigorated questions concerning the nature of power, meaning, truth and agency, inspiring novel approaches to individual and collective subjectivity, the emergence of political events and the relationship between desire and politics. In this new study, Nathan Widder shows how Deleuze's philosophy both inspires and presses beyond political theory's 'ontological turn'. Linking his thought to current political theory debates, Widder explains how Deleuze's philosophy and ontology of difference are cashed out through a micropolitics of creative and critical experimentation. He further demonstrates how Deleuze challenges ideas of identity and the subject that still dominate both political thought and practice today. Connecting Deleuze to key figures in both classical and contemporary political philosophy, from Plato and Aristotle to Hegel, Nietzsche, Lacan, and Foucault, this book will be of interest to students and scholars in political theory, philosophy, and related disciplines, looking to engage the emerging field of Deleuze studies.

Interest in the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze has grown exponentially over the last two decades, and, in recent years, Asian scholars have come to see rich possibilities for developing his thought within an Asian context. In this, the first collection devoted to Deleuze and Asia, several Asian and Western scholars explore Deleuzian themes and concepts in areas ranging from philosophy and religion to new media studies, cultural studies, theater, architecture, painting, film, and literature
