Abstract
This article attempts to explain the ontological elements, both possibly revolutionary and posthuman, of Manuel De Landa’s philosophical program. Initially, it reviews the influence of the ontology of difference in Gilles Deleuze, emphasizing the notions of multiplicity and virtuality. Next, it analyzes De Landa’s theory of assemblages as an alternative to theories of organic totalities. After that, it interrogates the properly posthuman sense of revolutionary assemblages. Finally, it offers a conclusion in which it establishes the posthuman affinities of Deleuze’s philosophy of difference with De Landa’s theory of assemblage.
