From the Renaissance to the fascist era to the student and worker uprisings of the '60s and '70s, the Italian peninsula has long been a volatile theater of political conflict. In this video, Conrad Hamilton and Ludovica Mancini team up to answer the question: what can the Italian radical tradition both old (communist) and older (republican) teach the Anglophone left today?
Correction: While in this video it's stated that Antonio Negri fled to France "before he could be put in prison," for charges related to his association with the Brigate Rosse, this is incorrect. Negri fled to France in 1983 before he could be charged on account of his association with BR. However, he had already spent over four years in prison awaiting trial—from 1979 to 1983—prior to his flight. Later, he returned to Italy, serving out his sentence (pronounced in absentia during his exile) from 1997-2003 before being released on parole.
Written, starred in and English subtitles by Conrad Hamilton
Directed, edited and Italian subtitles by Ludovica Mancini

The modern world is at an impasse. Disasters scroll across our smartphone screens and we’re invited to like, follow or upvote, but critical thinking is harder and harder to find. Rather than connecting us in common struggle and debate, the internet has sped up and deepened a long-standing process of alienation and atomization.
Zero Books aims to work against this trend.
