[zig-zag philosophy]

I'm editing my introduction to the thesis and re-reading Haraway and her notion of situated knowledges and cyberfeminism as well as going through Braidotti's Nomadic Subjects (which must be one of my favourite academic reads). Braidotti also has her own site which I check on frequently, hoping for a blog I suppose so that I might keep up with her theorising. Although no blog, I have just found her most recent article, published in Italian. In it she makes a comment about an aspect of her work which is dedicated to constructing *real* communities and discourses within and outside of her written works, all the while leaving "ample" space for others thereby provoking multiple encounters (nb. my *loose* translation). This kind of theorising that moves between other theories as well as being a political strategy is essentially "non-linear" and thus becomes a "zig-zag" philosophy.

"Se il discorso teorico infatti funziona in un’ economia non-lineare, in modo eterogeneo e complesso, allora anche la resistenza politica deve assumere questo stile a zig zag."
