The nomadic subject is a myth, that is to say a political fiction, that
allows you to think through and move across established categories and
levels of experience: blurring boundaries without burning bridges.
Implicit in [the choice of this figuration] is the belief in the
potency and relevance of the imagination, of myth-making, as a way to
step out of the political and intellectual stasis of these postmodern
times. Political fictions may be more effective, here and now, than
theoretical systems.
(Braidotti, 1994, from the cover)
