Summary/Abstract: The article is committed to the aim of reconstruction of the notion of immaterial/biopolitical labor in the context of its affinities with Deleuze and Guattari’s notion of desiring-production. Hardt and Negri’s controversial thesis of the autonomization of biopolitical labor from capitalist command as the basis for the political emancipation of the working class/multitude is also discussed and compared with Deleuze and Guattari’s vision of becoming-minoritarian as the only viable anti-capitalist politics.
