This volume joins the pragmatic philosophy of Deleuze to current affairs. Divided into four areas - Political Subjects; Moving Beyond Nationalism and the State; How to be Left Wing; and Living in the Contemporary World - the fifteen new essays in this volume use a contemporary context to think through and with Deleuze. Engaging here and now, the contributors use the Deleuzian theoretical apparatus to think about issues such as military activity in the Middle East, refugees, terrorism, information and communication, and the State.

Incorporating political theory and philosophy, culture studies, sociology, international studies, and Middle Eastern studies, the book is designed to appeal to a wide audience.
With twelve new essays, this volume applies the pragmatic philosophy of Deleuze to current affairs involving military activity in the Middle East, refugees, terrorism, information and communication, and the state. Topics include political theory and philosophy, cultural studies, sociology, international studies, and Middle Eastern studies.
