Anti-Oedipus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia
Anti-Oedipus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia
When it first appeared in France, Anti-Oedipus was hailed as a masterpiece by some and "a work of heretical madness" by others. In it, Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari set forth the following theory: Western society´s innate herd instinct has allowed the government, the media, and even the principles of economics to take advantage of each person´s unwillingness to be cut off from the group. What´s more, those who suffer from mental disorders may not be insane, but could be individuals in the purest sense, because they are by nature isolated from society. More than twenty-five years after its original publication, Anti-Oedipus still stands as a controversial contribution to a much-needed dialogue on the nature of free thinking.
