Summary/Abstract: The article aims at describibng these philosophical concepts within anti-humanistic narrative, which perceive a chance for the renewal of thinking in the death of some ideas and concepts. Trying to extract certain .dominant motive., which could combine different thinkers such as Donna Haraway, Giorgio Agamben, Antonio Negri and Elizabeth Grosz, one encounters the question of the inhuman, which now is considered neither as a threat nor as a barbarity, but rather a space potentially liberating. A brave mix of that which is human and inhuman: machine, beast, animal, opens a new horizon for questions on the very substance of such a combination.
