Gilles Deleuze. La ontología menor: de la política a la estética.

Abstract

In order to formulate the problem of the relationship between politics and aesthetics in the thought of Gilles Deleuze we consider it necessary to understand that the philosopher’s ontology refers to these two instances because the three dimensions, ontology, aesthetics and politics, are inseparable at the moment in which the philosophy becomes minor and, therefore, nearer to the circumstances than to any abstract transcendence. Hence we analyze in this article how the philosophy of Deleuze goes from politics and the analysis of the empirical and socio-political conditions in which we find ourselves, to seeing aesthetics as creative way of altering space and time, returning in that way to politics. To alter time and space and to expose a thought of creativity is already a political intervention into reality, as W. Benjamin had already proposed in the tradition of the minor or minority philosophies.
