However, Negri’s other works composed during his imprisonment and later - especially those philosophical writings concerned with theology – are often overlooked. This study is an attempt to deal with the relationship between religion or theology and power in Negri’s works, and to investigate the compatibility and contradiction between his perspective and Christian theology.
