This is a conversation between Antonio Negri, one of the most preeminent political philosophers, and Professor Atsushi Shibasaki, who was a guest professor at the Institute for European Global Studies during 2017/2018, with a translation by Professor Teresa Pullano. Their talk, which was based on a letter by Professor Shibasaki, deals with a range of issues, from Negri’s academic background and his forthcoming book to his view on music and films. In particular, their dialogue extends to reaching a comparison between Negri and Makoto Oda and Yusuke Maki, who are less well-known in Europe but have much in common with Negri’s theory and philosophy. Thus, the interview reveals many significant but somewhat overlooked theoretical and philosophical possibilities of cross-cultural interaction between Negri and non-European thinkers.
