In this paper, we explore the possibility of using Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari’s theories of minor science and literature to examine the role of marginalized sciences, particularly in the United States. We suggest that by combining Deleuze and Guattari’s work on minor sciences and minor literatures that the framework for an anthropology of science which takes alternative and marginalized sciences seriously can be established. To elucidate this model of inquiry, we focus on three aspects defined by Deleuze and Guattari: the political relationship of minor to dominant sciences, the role of science in the state, and the ways that minor sciences reconfigure dominant sciences. As a case study, we examine the science of ‘quantum consciousness’ in the United States. Quantum consciousness research proposes to replace dominant metaphysics in Western science, and its minority status is perpetuated by the power structures that draw on dominant sciences’ relationships to the state and knowledge production.
