Using the Work of Felix Guattari to Understand Space, Place, Social Justice, and Education

Abstract

This article considers the work of the radical psychoanalyst Felix Guattari in relation to the study of and intervention into space, place, education, and social justice. By understanding the ways in which Guattari’s work understands space and place as central to existence, the article explores his schizoanalytic cartographies to think about the mapping of possibilities for movement, change, and transformation. As well as setting out a reading of this work, the article discusses what might be the implications for researching class transitions and for working within education to marshal the powers of the imagination and the inhabiting of new spaces and places.
