Italian philosophical and political thought has been receiving
ever-growing attention in international debates. This has mainly
been driven by the revival of the Italian neo- and post-Marxist
tradition and of the Italian interpretation of French Theory, in
particular of Foucault's biopolitics. So, is it now possible to
speak of an 'Italian Theory' or an 'Italian difference' in the
context of philosophical and political thought? This book collects
together leading names in Italian critical thought to examine the
significant contributions that they are giving to contemporary
political debates. The first part of the book draws a possible
genealogy of the so-called 'Italian Theory', questioning the
possibility of grouping together many authors, and political and
theoretical approaches which are often reciprocally in conflict.
The second part of the book presents certain categories that have
become characteristic of Italian Thought for their original
interpretation and use by some of the authors recognized as part of
the Italian Theory tradition, from biopolitics and political
theology to crisis and immanence.
