Overview

Time for Revolution explores the burning issue of our times: is there still a place for resistance in a society utterly subsumed by capitalism? Written in prison two decades apart, these two essays reflect Negri's abiding interest in the philosophy of time and resistance. The first is a central work in Negri's oeuvre, tracing the fracture lines which force capitalist society into perpetual crisis. The second essay, written immediately after the global bestseller, Empire, provides a conceptual toolbox, deepening our understanding of the two key concepts of empire and multitude.

'Time for Revolution constitutes a major philosophical statement by one of the most important thinkers of our time'. Fredric Jameson; 'We discover here another Negri, a Negri deeply immersed in a philosophical, even a theological problematic. This book is a must: it provides the proper background for Negri's widely circulated analysis of the global capitalist Empire'. Slavoj Zizek; No one who seeks to comment on global capitalism or the movements opposing it can afford to ignore Negri. The New Statesman; Intricately argued philosophy, a serious Marxian project The Guardian.
