Aggregates and assesses Deleuze's claims about law, decision, judgement and related themes for the first time
Develops a complete and self-sustaining Deleuzian philosophy of law where others have found only fragmentation
Examines and uses various interdisciplinary connections, including law and literature, law and political theory, law and metaphysics, law and history of philosophy, and legal history
Critiques several approaches to the question of Deleuze's legal thought
Promises to ignite debate and draw attention to the importance of legal theory for other fields, including social and political philosophy
Gilles Deleuze has provided the most fascinating account of law of the 20th century. Yet it is hidden in a just a few clues dispersed throughout his work and no complete reconstruction of it has ever been produced before. Laurent de Sutter gathers all the elements that compose Deleuze's philosophy of law and articulates them for the first time in a real system.
The result is the most devastating critique of the very idea of law. But it is also surprising, praising the actual practice of jurisprudence. This is not simply a practice of judgment; it is a practice of radical creation and leads to an intriguing question: what if lawyers were the only true revolutionaries of our time?
