>I like the idea of following themes. I wouldn't mind following the line

>I will try and get my hands on the books referred to there and maybe

>There's other themes that overlap with Erik's list too. I was thinking
>we could also look at the regulation and system schools in order to see
>how Empire works within the context of different currents in global
>political economy, since the most frequent criticism it's faced so far
>has been that of lacking a grounding within that field.
>Another thing we should do is get hold of a list of all of Negri's books
>and articles, if it exists (does anyone know about this?). If not, we
>could try and do it ourselves, so that people know what is available and
>in what language.
>more later, keep up the delirium :-)
