The book 'Empire' by Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri analyzes the new political order of globalization. The authors argue that the current empire is based on elements of American constitutionalism and examine the cultural and economic changes of postmodern society, including new forms of racism, conceptions of identity and difference, communication and control networks, and migration routes. More than an analysis, the book proposes an alternative political paradigm for a truly democratic global society.

Antonio Negri (1881–1966) was an Italian poet, best known for his works in Milanese language. He began writing in 1931, after retiring from work and relocating to Montevecchia, in Brianza, and was later a prolific author. One of his prominent works is On soldaa papà, inspired by On papà soldaa by Giannino Sessa. While both works are based on the theme of a girl whose father dies in World War I, Negri's version is crudely anti-rhetoric and conveys pacifist values that openly contrasted those promoted in Italy by the Fascist regime of the time.
