What can philosophy offer when we suffer from brutal acts of terror and barbarous acts of counter-terror? Is the very grammar of the network of terror and anti-terror moves locked in the same ideology of power and state-ism that demands a deeper micro-analysis of human fetish for coercion and cruelty? Do we need schizoanalysis of the neurosis of terror and counter-terror where the work of Deleuze and Guattari can offer insight? This collection of essays considers the contribution of Deleuze and Guattari's philosophical ideas in forging a critique of global terror and counter-terror. Deleuze's concept of nomadic thought provides a starting point for this fetish for coercion and terrorizing power. The contributors identify areas of political terror, state terror, capitalist corporate terror, religious terror, cyber-terror, social terror and cultural terror to enable the inherent power structure within all forms of terror to be unpacked.
