This article aims to discuss the sense and the value of the social cartographies of justice starting from what could be defined the schizoanalysis of judicial power of Félix Guattari. Beginning from the preface of Guattari in the Chronique des flagrants délitsof Christian Hennion, contextualizing it, analyzing it in its specific framework and dis-cussing it through a confrontation with other theoretical implants that have the same critical tonality, the article exam-ines different typologies of judicial undergrounds and an utopic perspective as an answer to them. In this way, it makes the guattarian schizoanalysis an important component of a more general cartographical method that aims to analyze the strengths that act in judgments and to disclose their overall social and aesthetical depth, related to the individual and collective sensibility. Therefore, the principal thesis is that the critic of the politics of judgment –namely of the state and the changes of social sensibility (political, juridical and moral) –is extremely important in the problematization of the forms of experience
