Felix Guattari on Concepts - Dictionary of Arguments
Sokal I 177 Terms/Theory/Deleuze/Guattari/Bricmont/Sokal: (G. Deleuze, F. Guattari, Qu' est-ce que la philosophie?, Paris 1991 - German: Was ist Philosophie, Frankfurt/M. 1996: page numbers here from the German edition): in the work, the two use a plethora of scientific terms that have been taken out of context, without any perceptible logic. Deleuze and Guattari are certainly free to use these terms in a different way: science does not have a monopoly on the use of words such as "chaos","limit value/limit" or "energy". >Chaos, >Limits, >Energy, Sokal I 178 SokalVsDeleuze/SokalVsGuattari: in our opinion, the two authors have a comprehensive but superficial education, which they present in their writings. For the correct use of the concepts of physics and mathematics see >Sokal/Bricmont and >Feynman. 1. G. Deleuze, F. Guattari, Qu' est-ce que la philosophie?, Paris 1991 - German: Was ist Philosophie, Frankfurt/M. 1996: page numbers here stem from the German edition._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
