In Dialogues 11 Gilles Deleuze says that there are three misunderstandings of desire :
..lack or law; a natural orsponstaneous reality ; pleasure, or above all, the festival. Desire is always assembled and fabricted on a plane of immanence or of composition which must itself be constructed a the same time as desire assembles and fabricates. We do not mean that desire is histoprically determined....desire is the real agent, merging each time with the variables of assemblage. (p.103)
I've always seen desire as historically shaped and formed. Desire as agent suprises me.

Taliban, in Persian and Arabic means "desirers". In Islamic texts, Talab or desire is always associated with Ilm (elm) or knowledge. Now, I think a schizoanalytic-Nomadologic Approach can reveal a lot about them.
