The first collection of plays—provocative political dramas—by the coauthor of the best-selling book Empire With Trilogy of Resistance, the political philosopher Antonio Negri extends his intervention in contemporary politics and culture into a new medium: drama. The three plays collected for the first time in this volume (Swarm, The Bent Man, and Cithaeron) dramatize the central concepts of the innovative and influential thought he has articulated in his best-selling books Empire and Multitude, coauthored with Michael Hardt.
