Description
The Common by Antonio Negri explores the concept of the 'common' as a key idea in radical thought. This term is understood in two senses: as a collective of production and consumption, and as cooperation between workers and citizens asserting political power. Negri argues that the maturation of this dual concept signals the limits of capitalism in our age, revealing the common as an active force that recomposes production, society, and life in a new experience of freedom. He advocates for a free society founded on the premise that the good life is collectively ordered, prioritizing the common over individualism. This final volume in Negri's trilogy offers valuable insights into radical politics and the key social and political struggles of our time, making it a useful resource for those interested in these topics.
