5.0 out of 5 stars Gramsci contribution, February 6, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Prison Notebooks, Volume 3 (vol. 3) (Hardcover)
Antonio Gramsci had a powerful brain and used it under very difficult prison conditions to think through Italian politics, culture, intellectual life and his thinking was geared towards developing a new conceptual framework in light of the triumph of fascism and the weaknesses of the orthodox Marxism of Capitaland the politics of the Russian Revolution. The nature of politics,issues of hegemony, the role of culture, religion and intellectuals have contributed significantly to the disabling of the oppressed in many ways and Gramsci moved from the generalities of Marxist political economy to think seriously and to develop relevant theorisation. There are many insights in these notes on writers, influential thinkers, on language, popular culture, economics, international relations etc that make these notebooks very compelling.The annotations and editorial work are superb and facilitate careful study.
