I assume you mean Hardt & Negri's Empire, not the US empire as conventionally understood. I haven't given up on the cap-E version by any means. In fact, all the people who were kicking H&N while they thought they were down during the run-up to the Iraq war - when it did for a moment look like Washington really was in charge - have had to eat some plentiful helpings of crow (or the vegan equivalent).
