Indigenising Anthropology with Guattari and Deleuze by Barbara Glowczewski

This collection of essays charts the intellectual trajectory of Barbara Glowczewski, an anthropologist who has worked with Warlpiri people since 1979. She shows how the ways in which Aboriginal people actualise virtualities of their Dreaming space-time into collective networks of ritualised places resonate with some of Deleuze and Guattari's concepts.Radical alterity is not about exoticism and exclusion but about imagining how to weave different worlds in respect of their singularities always in becoming, how to recreate outsideness in our minds. This is indigenising anthropology.Inspired by the art and struggles of different Indigenous people and other discriminated groups, especially women, Glowczewski draws on her own conversations with Guattari, and her debates with various scholars to deliver an innovative agenda for radical anthropology which will open new avenues for research on environmental and social justice based on the value of difference and creative resistance.
Barbara Glowczewski is an anthropologist and a professorial researcher at the French Scientific Research Center, CNRS. She is also a member of the Laboratory of Social Anthropology at the College de France. Last month she was awarded the silver medal of the CNRS. She has dedicated her work to advocating for Australian Aboriginal creativity through a variety of artistic, cinematic and narrative exploration. She is the author of many books in French. Recent publications in English include Desert Dreamers (Univocal, 2016) and Kunga: Law Women from the Desert (Skira Editore, 2012).
