Conceptualizing the State in The Anti-Oedipus. Capitalism and Schizophrenia [Spanish]
Keywords:
State, Urstaat, CapitalismAbstract
The paper analyzes key aspects of the conception of The State in The Anti-Oedipus. Capitalism and Schizophrenia (1972), in particular the developments offered in Chapter Three: "Savages, Barbarians, Civilized". The innovative idea of the State arises from an elliptical, discontinuous, jumbling and polyphonic game with Karl Marx based on his notion of Asiatic Mode of Production; with Friedrich Nietzsche based on his concept of origin and domestication; and with Sigmund Freud based on his notion of latency. The central categories for this conceptualization can be summarized as follows: 1) The Despotic State (Urstaat) is considered as a paradigmatic moment of every State, and 2) the State is understood as a social machine, in its double articulation: social (socio-political institutional system) and libidinal (the field of desire and subjectivity).
