Gilles Deleuze, clinician of philosophical activity: paradox of a worker philosopher

Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) is approached as worker philosopher, a builder of concepts. Philosophy is defined as a productive activity in the capitalist context, which implies the militancy of the philosopher. This struggle takes place by analyzing the philosophical activity as a means of interference in production processes followed by the clinic of philosophical work, a departure developed out of the analytic ruptures. It discusses the composition of the collective of work and the maintenance of the genre of activity in philosophy by Deleuze. The intercession with the teaching activity appears crucial. Specific situations addressed by Deleuze in his philosophy are treated: drugs, literature, madness.
