Abstract

The debate on the crossroads between Foucault and Deleuze oscillates between two poles, depending on whether the convergences or divergences between these authors are highlighted: either they are brought closer together to unify them, or they are distanced from each other due to irreconcilable disagreements. In this article I argue that, despite undoubted differences in their philosophies, they share nodal philosophical positions, among which I highlight the following: they reject universals, propose to study multiplicities, analyze power from a “molecular” perspective, reformulate the role of the intellectual, and criticize political representation. Before substantiating these points of correspondence, I address the question of the reasons that led us to compare Deleuze and Foucault, given that it is not an arbitrary association. I also make some methodological clarifications in order to differentiate my approach from others already tested, and I argue in favor of the those shared theses, specifically in the epistemological and political fields.
