Quotes

  • Empire is emerging today as the center that supports the globalization of productive networks and casts its widely inclusive net to try to envelop all power relations within its &mdash; and yet at the same time it deploys a powerful police function against the new barbarians and the rebellious slaves who threaten its order.
  • We are by no means opposed to the globalization of relationships as such—in fact, as we said, the strongest forces of Leftist internationalism have effectively led this process. The enemy, rather, is a specific regime of global relations that we call Empire.
  • The legacy of modernity is a legacy of fratricidal wars, devastating "development," cruel "civilization," and previously unimagined violence. Erich Auerbach once wrote that tragedy is the only genre that can properly claim realism in Western literature, and perhaps this is true precisely because of the tragedy Western modernity has imposed on the world.
  • Philosophy is not the owl of Minerva that takes flight after history has been realized in order to celebrate its happy ending; rather, philosophy is subjective proposition, desire, and praxis that are applied to the event.
  • [The] fact of being within capital and sustaining capital is what defines the proletariat as a class.
  • The multitude is the real productive force of our social world, whereas Empire is a mere apparatus of capture that lives only off the vitality of the multitude &mdash; as Marx would say, a vampire regime of accumulated dead labor that survives only by sucking off the blood of the living.

Michael Hardt, född 1960 i Washington, D.C., är en amerikansk politisk filosof och professor i litteraturvetenskap på Duke University. Han har erhållits mycket uppmärksamhet efter att tillsammans med Antonio Negri ha skrivit den tongivande och kontroversiella boken Imperiet. I boken argumenterar författarna för att dagens företagsledda globalisering kommer att ge upphov till en motrörelse av tidigare ej skådad omfattning. Uppföljaren till Imperiet, Multituden − Krig och demokrati i imperiets tidsålder, publicerades 2004.
