Gramsci and the Political

From the State as "Metaphysical Event" to Hegemony as "Philosophical Fact"

is part of Radical Philosophy , 153 , January-February, 2009 , pp. 27 - 36

One of the forms in which the waves of protests against the 'new world order' in the 1990s and, particularly, the varied political and social movements of the new millennium have been registered in political philosophy has been in a renewed interest in the nature of 'the political' and its relationship with 'politics'. Even and especially in their hesitancies, weaknesses and defeats, these movements have prompted debate over the coordinates necessary to deﬁne a realistic leftist political project today. In turn, these discussions have reopened, at least for a signiﬁcant 'minoritarian' current, the question of the contribution that philosophical practice can make to projects of political emancipation.
