Description

Deleuze and Children explores the concept of childhood through the lens of Deleuze and Guattari's philosophy. This collection brings together diverse voices from various fields, including philosophy, literature, education, and sociology, to critically examine the notion of the child. The authors consider key aspects of children's lives, such as time, language, affect, and schooling, and interrogate the dominant idea of childhood as a linear progression towards adulthood. By applying Deleuze and Guattari's characterisations of children and childhood, this book offers a fresh perspective on the complexities of growing up. Through its interdisciplinary approach, Deleuze and Children challenges readers to rethink their understanding of the child and its place in society.
