Notes
1 Coleman and Ringrose (Citation2013) believe that Deleuze and Research Methodologies belongs to a new social movement that indicates ‘the need for methodologies capable of attending to the social and cultural world as [mobile, messy, creative, changing and open-ended, sensory and affective], and that account for the performativity of method’ (1).
2 Deleuze has a great influence on studies of complex systems, particularly those which have self-regulation, such as the Internet, organic systems and societies (see Bonta and Protevi Citation2004).
3 Assemblage is a translation of agencement (arrangement), or the process of arranging, organizing and fitting together (Parr Citation2010, 18). An assemblage is a combination of parts working together.
4 Nomad is the name of an ‘agent who not only inhabits, but territorializes, (im)mobilizes, or constructs smooth space by means of consistent independence from specified points and localized, stratified domains’ (Young Citation2013, 221). Derived from this concept, nomad science is defined as personal and problem-based, as opposed to state science which is general, abstract and well established.
5 Rhizome is a key concept used by Deleuze and Guattari (Citation2002, 3–28) in A Thousand Plateaus. It shows how they consider the continuous connection of different aspects of the cosmos. They define rhizome as opposed to hierarchical structures that are like a tree. Deleuze and Guattari held that a rhizome was different from a network presented as a tree structure because any point of it could connect to any point of something else in the network, unlike a tree with an orderly bifurcation into branches. This tree structure is harshly criticized by Deleuze and Guattari.
