Description
Non-Conceptual Negativity: Damaged Reflections on Turkey critiques the idea that Deleuze's philosophy is overly affirmative and has been co-opted by capitalist systems. Instead, Zafer Aracagök explores how late capitalism has evolved into a form of "Neanderthal capitalism", with Turkey serving as a key laboratory for this phenomenon.
Aracagök argues that the results of this laboratory are being implemented globally, leading to a situation where individuals are complicit in their own enslavement. The book invites readers to reconsider Deleuzian thought and its relationship to affirmation, particularly in light of Adorno's critique of affirmation.
This work offers a unique perspective on the intersection of philosophy, politics, and capitalism, and is likely to be of interest to those seeking to understand the complexities of contemporary social and economic systems.
