Factory of Strategy: Thirty-Three Lessons on Lenin

Synopsis

Factory of strategy is the last of antonio negri's major political works to be translated into english. Rigorous and accessible, it is both a systematic inquiry into the development of lenin's thought and an encapsulation of a critical shift in negri's theoretical trajectory. Lenin is the only prominent politician of the modern era to seriously question the "withering away" and "extinction" of the state, and like marx, he recognized the link between capitalism and modern sovereignty and the need to destroy capitalism and reconfigure the state.
