Abstract
Geophilosophy was created by the French philosophers Gilles Deleuze (1925–1995) and Félix Guattari (1930–1992). By adapting geographic concepts that emphasize proximity, contingency, interdisciplinarity, and bottom‐up modes of thinking, it overturns top‐down understandings of philosophical practice and linear histories of ideas. Geophilosophy has also influenced numerous theoretical and practical developments in geography, such as nonrepresentational, affect, and assemblage theories. It has given critical language to “minor” or micropolitical approaches within political economy and political ecology, and is one of the key inspirations behind the discipline's recent “ontological turn.” Underlying all of these is a nuanced retheorization of the complicated, constitutive relationship between lives and environments.
