A causalidade em Deleuze: diferença interna e produção de si

The paper aims to follow the central aspects of Deleuze's conception of causality, especially in its contrast to equivalent notions of Mecanicism, Platonism and Hegelianism. The point is to highlight how this notion, once emphasized as internal causality or causa sui, favors the establishment of difference as the origin of being, basic ontological requirement in Deleuzes's thought. Therefore, we will show the relevancy of Michael Hardt's comments in order to show the context that, crossing particularly Deleuze's dialogue with Bergson, places causality in immanence, and, at the same time, moves it away from negation's domain. This way, we will pay attention to some aspects related to an interesting translation controversy.
