Abstract

The article is committed to the aim of reconstruction of the notion of
immaterial/biopolitical labor in the context of its affinities with Deleuze and Guattari’s
notion of desiring-production. Hardt and Negri’s controversial thesis of the
autonomization of biopolitical labor from capitalist command as the basis for the
political emancipation of the working class/multitude is also discussed and compared
with Deleuze and Guattari’s vision of becoming-minoritarian as the only viable
anti-capitalist politics.
