Abstract

The article "Futurism without a Future" is an interview with Franco 'Bifo' Berardi, an Italian autonomist Marxist philosopher, discussing his political and intellectual journey, involvement in the 1977 protests in Bologna, and friendships with Félix Guattari and Jean Baudrillard. Berardi reflects on recent events in Chile, France, and Italy, highlighting the rise of far-right movements and the separation between different protest movements. The interview delves into the concept of alienation in the 21st century, the influence of Deleuze, Guattari, and Baudrillard on Berardi's work, and the current global political and psychological landscape, including the war in Ukraine and the Israeli siege on Gaza. Berardi's upcoming book, "Quit Everything," explores themes of depression, resignation, and the challenges faced by the younger generation in a world marked by fascism and uncertainty.
