Barbara Glowczewski

Indigenising Anthropology with Guattari and Deleuze

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A collection of Barbara Glowczewski's 40 years of Aboriginal Australian research in conversation with Guattari and Deleuze This collection of essays charts the intellectual trajectory of Barbara Glowczewski, an anthropologist who has worked with Warlpiri people since 1979. She shows how the ways in which Aboriginal people actualise virtualities of their Dreaming space-time into collective networks of ritualised places resonate with some of Deleuze and Guattari's concepts. Radical alterity is not about exoticism and exclusion but about imagining how to weave different worlds in respect of their singularities always in becoming, how to recreate outsideness in our minds. This is indigenising anthropology. Inspired by the art and struggles of different Indigenous people and other discriminated groups, especially women, Glowczewski draws on her own conversations with Guattari, and her debates with various scholars to deliver an innovative agenda for radical anthropology which will open new avenues for research on environmental and social justice based on the value of difference and creative resistance. Barbara Glowczewski is an anthropologist and a professorial researcher at the French National Scientific Research Center, CNRS. She is the author of Desert Dreamers (Univocal/University of Minnesota Press) and many other books as well as innovative multimedia work.
