Abstract

Even if for Deleuze an empirist
is able of following the disequilibria existing in the practical functioning of societies, of guiding himself through that plane whose relationships are not determined; it is necessary for him to have available some instrument of orientation within that mobile plane represented here by the body of a society.
Deleuze takes way from the social body the heaviness and immobility of the structure which is unable of thinking the inner logics of those disequilibria, he does so in order to ?ll that body with lines of unequal qualities and which are able of different movements. Some of them are harder, delimiting apparently stable territories, others are more ?exible, always producing zones of instability within those same territories. These zones are some times reintegrated to the past equilibrium, some times they point toward a new equilibrium or just toward the death of the ancient one. This paper aims at exploring the logics of those lines with which Deleuze builds another image of the societies
