Yes, you will find that most Trots have never read
Negri.  They, the Trots, have in effect read
Callinicos' representation of Negri and then
pontificate about, talking as if they were experts on
Negri.  Anyway, if you want to read a more nuanced
discussion of Negri's concept of "the Multitude", I
advise you to read the following translation, 
"Approximations: Towards an Ontological Definition of
the Multitude", written by Negri".  Find it at this
