New materialism is a broad field within contemporary philosophy which seek to engage with the traditions of materialist philosophy as well as develop new articulations between intellectual currents in science and philosophy.[1] New Materialists often draw on Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari's theories of the rhizome, as well as materialist interpretations of Baruch Spinoza's concept of immanence.[2] Many philosophical tendencies are associated with new materialism, in such a way that the field resists a common definition. Common characteristics of New Materialists include the rejection of representationalism, humanism and the intrinsic distinction of subjectivity and knowledge.[3] New materialism also shares a critical reaction to the theoretical dominance of radical constructivism as well as the normative and analytic political theory.[4] Some theoreticians also emphasize the critique of the deficits and inconsistencies of previous paradigms of materialism, such as phenomenology and Marxism.[4][5]
