The unity of the tribe ensures the consistency of the nomads’ trajectory. The tribe is a moving standpoint. Linking together the multiple realities of the present, the tribe prevents the total fragmentation of nomadic identity.


Unity is necessary to the coherence of the tribe but paradoxically imperils nomadic life. Nomads will run away from any force that tries to embody them in a single, monolithic, unified reality.


Any transport that accelerates the speed at which the rhizome expands also reduces its connections to the multiple. Speed projects objects forward in a direction and simultaneously alien it from all others. Nomads strengthen their unity by integrating the multidimensional.
