'''<big>Assemblages</big>''' | |||
Assemblage is a philosophical way of looking at the world and understanding how things work together. It's all about focusing on the diverse and complex connections between people, things, and stories. Instead of thinking that individuals have all the power, it suggests that the ability to do things is spread out in networks involving people, objects, and narratives. There are several ways philosophers approach assemblage thinking. | |||
Three notable versions are: | |||
Delanda’s-This version emphasizes the idea that assemblages are made up of different elements that interact with each other. For example, think of a city as an assemblage of buildings, people, transportation systems, and more. All these elements work together to make the city function. | |||
Latour and Callon's (Actor-Network Theory)- They look at how both humans and non-human things (like technology or objects) play a role in shaping the world. For instance, consider how a smartphone connects people to information and other people, influencing how we interact and live our lives. | |||
Deleuze and Guattari's- This is the most common version of assemblage in debate. It explores how different parts come together and create something new. Think of a musical band: the musicians, their instruments, and the audience all form an assemblage, and the music that emerges is a result of their interactions. | |||
These different approaches share some important ideas: | |||
They see the world as a web of relationships, where everything is connected and they highlight how new and unexpected qualities can emerge from these connections. For example, a community's culture can arise from the interactions between its members and their environment. They stress that the relationships within an assemblage are not fixed; they can change and adapt over time. Just like how people's roles and connections within a family can evolve. | |||
Because Assemblage varies between different philosophers, the below information will be on Deleuze and Guttari's interpretation. | |||
Deleuze and Guattari develop assemblage theory, drawing inspiration from dynamical systems theory, which studies how material systems self-organize. They extend this theory to encompass social, linguistic, and philosophical systems. | |||
There are six key concepts in Deleuze and Guttari's Assemblage theory: | |||
1. Assemblage: An assemblage is a complex constellation of singularities. These singularities are unique elements, and when they come together, they create an assemblage, like a puzzle with diverse pieces that fit together in specific ways. | |||
2. Coding: Coding is the process by which elements within an assemblage are organized and ordered. It involves selecting, composing, and completing a territory. Think of it as arranging different parts into a structured whole, like organizing a group of people into a team with specific roles. | |||
3. Stratification: Stratification occurs during the composition of a territory within an assemblage. It involves creating hierarchical structures or layers. For example, in a social context, it might involve creating a hierarchy of authority within an organization. | |||
4. Territorialization: Territorialization is the ordering of bodies within the assemblage. It encompasses both material elements (like physical objects and actions) and immaterial elements (like ideas and statements). It's about establishing rules and boundaries within the assemblage. | |||
5. Deterritorialization: This process involves the disconnection or disarticulation of elements within the assemblage. It's when components exit the assemblage, causing changes in its structure. Think of it as when people or ideas leave a group or organization, leading to shifts in dynamics. | |||
6. Reterritorialization: Reterritorialization is the opposite of deterritorialization. It's the process by which new components enter the assemblage and create new connections. It's like when new members join a group, bringing fresh ideas and perspectives. | |||
