Main Article Content

Josué Imanol López Barrios

Abstract

This article seeks to outline the possibilities of a becoming-mosquito, en Deleuze and Guattari's sense of becoming-animal. For this, some characteristics of the concept of becoming-animal will be reviewed. Later, the possible assembly established by mosquitoes with their environment will be explored. Subsequently, the deterritorializations carried out by these insects and the efforts to control them biopolitically will be investigated. To finally propose some ideas on how to make a becoming-mosquito.
