About

My research has focused on the relation of conflict to the transformations of capitalism, in particular on ways to think the organisation of conflict. I have written on Italian post-War communist thought (Negri, Tronti, Cacciari) as well as on French poststructuralism (Deleuze and Guattari), and on Heidegger and Schmitt. I am currently engaged in research on the question of the ‘autonomy of the political’ within Italian Marxism, through a consideration of the Italian Workerist appropriation of the thought of Lenin, Weber, Heidegger, and Schmitt.

I have translated a number of books and essays by Antonio Negri, most recently, The Labor Job (Duke University Press). I have also translated Giorgio Agamben's The Kingdom and the Glory: For a Theological Genealogy of the Economy and of Government (with Lorenzo Chiesa) (Stanford) and The Western Passage: Philosophy and Globalization (Verso) by Giacomo Marramao.

I am part of the editorial board of the journal Historical Materialism: Research in Critical Marxist Theory.
