There is a difference between theory and theorizing. One way or another, theory is central to the organization of most academic disciplines: for example, as a framework of concepts that expresses preoccupations, that codifies linkages, that relates discoveries, that raises questions. But theorizing is the becoming of theory: for example, running into problems, feeling perplexity, creating space, forming concepts, finding time, condensing frameworks, forcing conclusions – a living reality that is (for reasons explored below) neglected as a topic of inquiry. I address this deficiency here by engaging with theorizing as a legitimate, perhaps inescapable theme, albeit one that remains elusive and that must as far as possible be grasped directly as it occurs. In developing this engagement, I suggest that the philosophy of Deleuze and Guattari offers an appropriate point of departure and – through a reading of Difference and Repetition and What is Philosophy?, and through a synthesis of this with the experience of theorizing – I draw out the components of a Deleuzian theory of theorizing.

Deleuzian风格的理论化

理论和理论化之间是有区别的。无论哪种方式，理论对于大多数学术学科的组织都是至关重要的：例如，作为表达关注，概念化联系，关联发现，提出问题的概念框架。但是理论化是理论的发展：例如，遇到问题，感到困惑，创造空间，形成概念，寻找时间，凝聚框架，做出结论–一种生活现实被（出于以下探究的原因）作为探究话题而被忽略了。我在这里通过将理论化作为一个合法的，也许是不可避免的主题来解决这一缺陷，尽管这个主题仍然难以捉摸，并且必须在发生时尽可能地直接加以把握。在发展这种参与时，
