SOTTOTITOLI DISPONIBILI IN ITALIANO From the Renaissance to the fascist era to the student and worker uprisings of the '60s and '70s, the Italian peninsula has long been a volatile theater of political conflict. In this video, Conrad Hamilton and Ludovica Mancini team up to answer the question: what can the Italian radical tradition both old (communist) and older (republican) teach the Anglophone left today? Correction: While in this video it's stated that Antonio Negri fled to France "before he could be put in prison," for charges related to his association with the Brigate Rosse, this is incorrect. Negri fled to France in 1983 before he could be charged on account of his association with BR. However, he had already spent over four years in prison awaiting trial—from 1979 to 1983—prior to his flight. Later, he returned to Italy, serving out his sentence (pronounced in absentia during his exile) from 1997-2003 before being released on parole.

Her answer is simple: Minimalism. Demers’ is chair of Musicology at the USC Thornton School of Music and the author of the books Drone and Apocalypse and Anatomy of Thought Fiction. In this video essay, she explores Marxism’s commitment to the future, the teleology at work in our linear orientation, and the promise of timelessness.
