Le désert et le maquis. D’un état clandestin

Abstract

Is the argument that to go underground is the symptom of an oppression on the social ground acceptable? Is this event a philosophical and political decision, or the compelling result of any authority? Does clandestineness justify anarchism? To answer these questions, to dismantle this argument, we hope to have produced an "innovative" article, which means that we tried hard to submit some unexpected reasoning, and unacademic form or style. We indulged first in a free reasoning, trying to situate and delimitate the space of clandestineness, introducing a kind of generic geo-ontology. Secondly, we used Deleuze and Guattari's words in "Anti-Œdipus" to put our conclusion to the test, i.e. we didn't quote it, but reemploy them as our own. This way of writing is an attempt to create a philosophical or philosophy fiction, that is also the most synthetic and less scholastic and dogmatic line.
