Relative deterritorialiszation is always accompanied by reterritorialiszation, while positive absolute deterritorialiszation is more alike to the construction of a "[[plane of immanence]]", akin to [[Spinoza]]'s  [[ontological]] constitution of the world {{Ref|Negri}}. There is also a negative sort of absolute deterritorialiszation, for example in the [[subjectivation]] process (''the face'').
