In 1975, Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari jointly published the book "Kafka: Toward a Minor Literature." The pair introduces this case study with the thesis that the work of the Czech writer is composed of machines for analyzing the social field, undertaking the tasks of dismantling the various components of these machinic texts and investigating the practical effects they are capable of producing. Our objective in this article is to break down Deleuze and Guattari's reading of the theme of law in Kafka's work. On the one hand, we seek to insert "case Kafka" into the critique of the idea of law as the necessary foundation of sociability that runs through all of Deleuze's work. On the other hand, we aim to demonstrate the determining character of this case for the creation of an alternative perspective on law, justice, and the social field.
