Author Information

Mario Tronti was a philosopher and politician. In the 1960s he was among the founders of operaismo and later he played a leading role in the Italian Communist Party. He had been a newspaper editor, university professor, president of the Centro per la Riforma dello Stato, and senator of the Italian Republic. He is the author of Workers and Capital and many other books in Italian. Michele Filippini is Associate Professor in History of Political Thought at the University of Bologna, Italy. His research interests include the history of Marxism and post-Marxism (Gramsci, workerism, Laclau), the early modern political thought (Machiavelli, Hobbes), mass society in the 19th and 20th centuries, and the forms of political legitimation and political power. Jamila M.H. Mascat is Assistant Professor of Gender and Postcolonial Studies at the Graduate Gender Programme and a research affiliate at the Institute of Cultural Inquiry (ICON) at Utrecht University, Netherlands. Her transdisciplinary research works across the fields of Political Philosophy (German Idealism and Marxism in particular), Postcolonial Studies, Feminist Theories, and Critical Race Theories. Her current research interests focus, on the one hand, on theories of partisanship and political engagement and, on the other hand, on theories of postcolonial justice and postcolonial reparations. Matteo Cavalleri is Junior Assistant Professor of Moral Philosphy in the Department of Philosophical, Pedagogical and Social Sciences at the University of Chieti-Pescara, Italy. He has also held teaching positions at the University of Bologna, Italy. In 2015 he won the Vittorio Sainati Prize. His research interests are developed at the intersection of theoretical analysis and political-historical investigation, with particular reference to the work of G.W.F. Hegel and the theme of freedom; the relationship between philosophical anthropology and the historical dimension; the aesthetics and politics of memory; and the dialogue between political thought, philosophy and literature.
