Workers and Capital
«Today we are witnessing a radical transformation of work processes and the capitalist mode of production. Tronti's Workers and Capital remains a solid basis for researching this new terrain.»
Toni Negri
The classic text of Italian workerism available in English for the first time. Workers and Capital is universally recognised as the most important work produced by operaismo, a current of political thought emerging in the 1960s that revolutionised the institutional and extra-parliamentary Left in Italy and beyond.

«Today we are witnessing a radical transformation of work processes and the capitalist mode of production. Tronti's Workers and Capital remains a solid basis for researching this new terrain.»
Toni Negri
«Epoch-making.»
Alberto Toscano
«In the early 1970s I read Tronti religiously.»
Silvia Federici
«Tronti's analyses of capital and the potential to overthrow it, which provided a beacon for generations of Italian radicals, have lost none of their power today. All those who struggle within and against capitalist society will find here a treasure of new insights and weapons.»
Michael Hardt, co-author of Assembly
«Every generation of revolutionary anti-capitalists has to come to terms with how to read afresh the classic formulations of Marx and Lenin in ways appropriate to the conditions of their times. How Tronti and some of his close colleagues did this in the 1960s is a spectacular and inspirational example of how to re-theorize class formation and the practices of class struggle from a ground-up and workerist perspective. While our contemporary world may be very different, there is much to be learned not only conceptually but also methodologically from Tronti's brilliant and incisive interventions at all levels in the politics of his era.?»
David Harvey
«A message in a bottle finally getting ashore.»
