In the last section of this book, the term happiness is introduced. Hardt and Negri
claim that happiness should become a political concept. Happiness is a pleasure, a
public and collective good, and includes an active institutional character. “What it
does mean, though, is that change is possible at the most basic level of our world and
our selves and that we can intervene in this process to orient it along the lines of our
desires, toward happiness.” (378)
