The Prince and the Archaeologist

Gramsci, Foucault, and the Crisis of Left Intellectual Thought
Ph.D. Dissertation.
Santa Cruz, CA: University of California, 2000, 542
This thesis attempts to answer the question of why in this moment of crisis no new general theoretical paradigm of social change has emerged. Sanbonmatsu criticizes Foucault's social philosophy. He then offers a «preliminary sketch of a new, normative political theory, a synthesis based in part on the insights of Antonio Gramsci (the "Prince" of my title). I argue that Gramsci's thought, not only offers a useful basis for comprehending the phenomenological and perceptual dimensions of praxis, it can also potentially serve as the basis of a political strategy for uniting the otherwise scattered, disparate elements of the global opposition».
