Desiring-production
Desiring-production (French: production désirante) is a concept developed by the French thinkers Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari in their book Anti-Oedipus (1972). == Overview == In opposition to the perceived idealism and repressive tendencies of Freudian theory, Deleuze and Guattari set out to describe a renewed framework of desire, incorporating both philosophical and psychoanalytic perspectives towards forming a "materialist psychiatry." Deleuze and Guattari's conception of desire (Similar to Immanuel Kant's) sees it as a productive force, as opposed to the more common conception of desire as 'wanting something due to lack of something'.
