Considers the contribution of Deleuze and Guattari’s philosophical ideas in forging a critique of global terror and counter-terrorContains a new philosophical analysis of global terror and state reactions, as well as military aggressionArgues for a micro-level understanding of terror and counter-terror from the perspective of axiomatic thinking on power, violence and structures of dominationsConsiders different aspects of terror and analyses the basic grammar of violence that includes brutalities inherent in non-religious terror like market terror, cyber terror and social terrorWhat can philosophy offer when we suffer from brutal acts of terror and barbarous acts of counter-terror? Is the very grammar of the network of terror and anti-terror moves locked in the same ideology of power and state-ism that demands a deeper micro-analysis of human fetish for coercion and cruelty? Do we need schizoanalysis of the neurosis of terror and counter-terror where the work of Deleuze and Guattari can offer insight? This collection of essays considers the contribution of Deleuze and Guattari’s philosophical ideas in forging a critique of global terror and counter-terror. Deleuze`s concept of nomadic thought provides a starting point for this fetish for coercion and terrorizing power. The contributors identify areas of political terror, state terror, capitalist corporate terror, religious terror, cyber-terror, social terror and cultural terror to enable the inherent power structure within all forms of terror to be unpacked.
