“…One of the striking implications of this dimension of geophilosophy is that it stages a direct problematisation to phenomenology and the dualistic opposition it presents between subject and object, which itself is a problem of abstraction (see Debaise, 2022) given the tendency of the subject, as Deleuze (1998, p. 51) reminds us, to "abstract a reflection from the physical world of flows, a bloodless double made up of subjects, objects, predicates, and logical relations". This first possibility is one explored in depth by Roberts, Lapworth and Dewsbury (2022) who negate the phenomenological concept of 'world'-as an environment encircling and existing for a subject-in favour of the semantic choice of earth by Deleuze and Guattari as a deterritorializing and deterritorialized force that would unground the structure of a world on which phenomenology depends. For Elizabeth Grosz, thinking thought differently requires recognising that all forms of life-not least human-are products of earthly forces that exceed and continuously destabilise those same forms.…”
