Nomadic Thinking by Buket Korkut-Raptis

, seeking answers to these interrelated questions, consists of an effort to explain the nomadic conception of humanity within the language of Western philosophy. It uncovers the nomadic way of thinking by examining both the social lives and cultural narratives of nomads themselves. As author Buket Korkut-Raptis makes clear, nomadic thought offers a much-needed ethical perspective necessary to overcome exploitative human relations and to modify our relationship with nature. It revives our trust in humanity and gives us hope that we can be creative in finding new forms of social life, better than what we are confined to in our civilized world.

"While composed from a philosophical point of view, inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche and Gilles Deleuze, Nomadic Thinking covers important authors in fields such as ethics, philosophical anthropology, and political philosophyWhat is important is that Korkut-Raptis's intent is not about recounting the views of the authors she mentions but rather using them as provocations and inspirations for developing an independent, consistent, and persuasive argument on behalf of nomadic philosophy and nomadic ways of life. There are strong reasons to believe there will be a significant and well-deserved interest in this book." — Adam Chmielewski, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, Poland
