Hanjo Berressem establishes the notion of a schizoanalytic ecology as the most consistent conceptual spine of Felix Guattari's work. To look at a situation ecologically means to analyze and administer it with the practical aim of creating a space in which it is possible to actualize viable modes of life. To create a multiplicitous, open and elastic milieu that is conducive to processes of both individuation and singularization.Berressem covers the whole range of Guattari's solo work, as well as the books co-authored with Gilles Deleuze. But the core of his argument is developed by a comprehensive explication and analysis of Guattari's Schizoanalytic Cartographies. This reveals an ecological ontology, developed out of key concepts such as the informal diagram, the abstract machine and transversality, that is based on the conceptual complementarity of the world (the given) and its creatures (the giving).
