Nomadology is, according to Deleuze the opposite of a state-centric, settled point of view which he connects to history. It is a dynamic proces where the actor is constantly changing because of the dynamics that are implied in nomadic actions. Nomadolgy does not refer to one place, the human being is free and constantly becoming something else. The body is not settled and unrestricted by territorializations of power.
