Gramsci and the Emancipation of the Subaltern Classes

This book outlines essential issues of Antonio Gramsci's thought, from his relationship to other political thinkers, including Rosa Luxemburg, Lenin, and Machiavelli; the development of his key conceptual categories; and the applicability of those categories in contemporary contexts. The author demonstrates how Gramsci's revolutionary strategy begins with the knowledge of the subaltern classes' common sense, and their elements of rebellion, in order to establish a dialectical relationship between intellectuals and the masses. That relationship promotes collective intellectual progress, ultimately leading to an effective philosophy of praxis, founded on labor and a new hegemony. The book demonstrates that Gramsci's thought offers possibilities for understanding the serious crises of today.
