Michael Hardt is co-author with Antonio Negri of Empire (Harvard, 2000), an
innovative and radical study that has been described as "the first great
theoretical synthesis of the new millennium" (Frederic Jameson). Hardt argues
that Empire is alive and well in the form of the new political order of
globalisation, with new forms of racism, identity, difference, communication and
control.
In conversation with Stuart Hall, Emeritus Professor at the Open University and
Chairman of inIVA and Autograph, they will discuss some of the debates that have
emerged in the wake of Empire.
The series is curated by Niru Ratnam (art historian, The Open University) and
Gilane Tawadros (Director, inIVA).
inIVA creates exhibitions, publications, multimedia, education and research
projects. Each project is designed to bring the work of artists from culturally
diverse backgrounds to the attention of the widest possible public.
