For more than fifteen years, "Nomadic Subjects"has guided
discourse in continental philosophy and feminist theory, exploring
the constitution of contemporary subjectivity, especially the
concept of difference within European philosophy and political
theory. Rosi Braidotti's creative style vividly renders a
productive crisis of modernity. From a feminist perspective, she
recasts embodiment, sexual difference, and complex concepts through
relations to technology, historical events, and popular
culture.
This thoroughly revised and expanded edition retains all but two
of Braidotti's original essays, including her investigations into
epistemology's relation to the "woman question;" feminism and
biomedical ethics; European feminism; and the possible relations
between American feminism and European politics and philosophy. A
new piece integrates Deleuze and Guattari's concept of the
"becoming-minoritarian" more deeply into modern democratic thought,
and a chapter on methodology explains Braidotti's methods while
engaging with her critics. A new introduction muses on Braidotti's
provocative legacy.
