Description

Pipeline Letters from Prison offers a unique insight into the life and thought of Antonio Negri, one of the most influential political theorists of our time. Written during his imprisonment in 1970s Italy, these letters provide a vivid testimony to Negri's journey through the political upheavals and intellectual traditions of the late 20th century.

Through these letters, Negri reflects on his personal development as a philosopher, theorist and political activist, and analyses the events and activities that have shaped his thinking. The letters recount an existential journey that links rigorous philosophical education with powerful political passion, set against the historical backdrop of postwar Italy.

Published here for the first time, these letters offer a valuable insight into Negri's role in the development of radical thought and politics, including his involvement in movements like Autonomia. They provide a fascinating glimpse into one man's journey through the tumultuous years of late 20th century politics.
