Böcker av Antonio Negri

Monta, Nineta, in gondola, Te condurò lontan su la laguna; Vien, Nina mia, destrighete, Chè, fin dal çiel, le palide Stele te fa l'invito a una, a una

These two key essays by Antonio Negri, brought together here for the first time, were written in prison two decades apart. Together, the two essays explore the burning issue of our times: is there still a place for resistance in a society utterly subsumed by capitalism?

Factory of Strategy is the last of Antonio Negri's major political works to be translated into English. Rigorous and accessible, it is both a systematic inquiry into the development of Lenin's thought and an encapsulation of a critical shift in Negri's theoretical trajectory.Lenin is the only prominent politician of the modern era to seriously question the "e;withering away"e; and "e;extinction"e; of the state, and like Marx, he recognized the link between capitalism and modern sovereignty and the need to destroy capitalism and reconfigure the state. Negri refrains from portraying Lenin as a ferocious dictator enforcing the proletariat's reappropriation of wealth, nor does he depict him as a mere military tool of a vanguard opposed to the Ancien Regime. Negri instead champions Leninism's ability to adapt to different working-class configurations in Russia, China, Latin America, and elsewhere. He argues that Lenin developed a new political figuration in and beyond modernity and an effective organization capable of absorbing different historical conditions. He ultimately urges readers to recognize the universal application of Leninism today and its potential to institutionally-not anarchically-dismantle centralized power.

Writings by Negri on the brief thaw in the cold winter of neoliberalism, Thatcherism, Reaganomics, and counterrevolution.

In the ten years since the initial publication of Insurgencies, Antonio Negri's reputation as one of the world's foremost political philosophers has grown dramatically. Now with a foreword by Michael Hardt, Insurgencies leads to a new notion of how power and action must be understood if we are to achieve a democratic future.

Negri on Negri provides a glimpse into his mind and life. Perhaps nowhere else can one engage so readily the ideas of this major contemporary thinker.
