Editorial Review

Product Description

Unravelling Gramsci makes extensive use of Antonio Gramsci’s writings, including his much-overlooked pre-prison journalism, prison letters, as well as his prison notebooks, to provide a fresh approach to understanding his contemporary relevance in the current neoliberal world order. Adam Morton examines in detail the themes of hegemony, passive revolution and uneven development to provide a useful way of analysing the contemporary global political economy, the project of neoliberalism, processes of state formation, and practices of resistance. The book explores the theoretical and practical limitations of how Gramsci’s ideas can be used today, offering a broad insight into state formation and the international factors shaping hegemony within a capitalist framework.

4-0 out of 5 stars a very useful overview of Gramsci
This is a really very helpful introduction and guide to Gramsci's thought. Gramsci's own writings are notoriously fragmented and almost always developed in dialogue with aspects of Italian history with which most readers won't be familiar. Sassoon makes a very thorough, and well grounded exegesis of central currents of his thought. It is also, I think, a very useful correction to some of the overly culturalist readings of Gramsci. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars An excellent translation and annotated text
I found this annotated text excellent for my understanding of the South and its diaspora. Having read Gramsci's original text in Italian several times, I can vouch that this is an excellent translation and the notes Verdicchio provides contextualise Gramsci's ideas. In addition, the translator provides an excellent introduction relating the concerns expressed by Gramsci just before his arrest to present day concerns with respect to migration and the transposition of North-South and South-North colonial relations to diasporic contexts such as those of North America and possibly Australia and Northern Europe. Relevant political writings by Gramsci are added to the slim volume.This is one piece by Gramsci that deserves greater recognition in the literature than it has been given thus far. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description

This book focuses on two of the most cited figures in the debate on radical education, Antonio Gramsci (1891-1937) and Paulo Freire (1921-1997). Both regarded forms of adult education as having an important role to play in the struggle for liberation from oppression. Peter Mayo examines the extent to which their combined insights can provide the foundation for a theory of transformative adult education. He considers their respective contributions to the development of such a theory, analyzes their ideas comparatively and identifies some of the limitations in their work for incorporation into a theory. The book concludes with a major synthesis of their ideas in the context of other adult educators' more recent contributions in order to develop a theory of transformative adult education.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good Book about a Great Under-read Political Thinker
Gramsci was a very courageous and brilliant thinker who helped found the Italian Communist Party.He died of deliberate medical neglect in one of Mussolini's prisons in 1937.Roger Simon, at the time this book was published in 1982, was a member of the British Communist Party. Drawing inspiration and insight from Gramsci's writings, he is very critical of the oppressive Soviet model of Communism and its destructive influence on Western Communist parties.Nevertheless, his book reflects the 1970s optimism for the future and Leftist faith in Marxist ideology.He gives a good but brief intro to Gramsci's key concepts--the text of the book is only 130 pages.He also applies the Gramsci model to Great Britain and at times seems overly optimistic from the perspective of 2002 when Italy and other Western European powers have swept the Right -wing into power.Perhaps Gramsci's most famous and important contribution to leftist theory is his concept of ideological hegemony. The more an economic class has ideological hegemony, the more it operates with the implied consent of the other classes under its domination.The less it has ideological hegemony or when its cultural and sociological influences are in a relatively undeveloped state, the more it must govern by coercion--the Soviet Union, in taking over from autocratic Russia, in may ways reduplicated and even multiplied this coercion because it never achieved the optimal amount of ideological hegemony and the consequent building of myriad class and other alliances prior to take over of the state.Gramsci's strategy relies less on violence and more on trying tobuild a humane, progressive society prior to any actual revolutionary seizure of the state. A class that is hegemonic in this way sees beyond its own immediate interests and takes into account the interests of other groups as well. Gramsci and Simon offer a much richer and nuanced account than what I am able to give here in such limited space.
At one point, attempting to clarify Gramsci's distinctions between civil society ( more reliant on consent) and the state (more reliant on coercion), he says that schools lie within the realm of civil society though they do the bidding and our often governed by the state. From the perspective of 2002, there seems to be more of a coercive nature to education now, less trust in civil society to do its job relatively unsupervised.Simon sees schools as an interpenetration of the civil into the state but now there is a reciprocal interpenetration of the state into the civil with the increased emphasis on federal and state mandated testing that often takes up weeks. Some teachers complain that they are forced to teach to the tests and have less time forimparting real learning and inspiring critical thinking skills. Simon is also critical of the British Labor Party.I would be interested to see what he thinks of it today.It seems to have followed the Clinton model for the Democrats--talk left and compromise with or capitulate to the right everywhere--both Blair in Britain and Clinton in the U.S. have deliberately moved their parties to the right. The left is in disarray, mired in sterile arguments of political correctness and knee jerk reactions to world events.It has broken down into innefectual factions, etc.More than ever, the left would do well to review the writings of Gramsci.Simon makes several good points and does a serviceable job of summarizing Gramsci but the book could stand an update. ...

Product Description
In this study, Renate Holub attempts to reclaim Antonio Gramsci's theory from classical Marxism, instead placing him in a broader European critical context, alongside the Frankfurt School, phenomenology, and sociolinguistics. Holub emphasizes Gramsci's affinities with the cultural theories of the Frankfurt School (Horkheimer, Bloch, Brecht, Benjamin), and also points out the links between Gramsci's linguistic and phenomenological forms of knowledge. Holub conveys the conceptual and methodological complexity of his work, which is, the author claims, relevant to the construction of today's critical theory. ... Read more
