Apitzsch, Ursula Gramsci and the Current Debate on Multi-cultural Education

English version of her German article of 1992. «Discusses Antonio Gramsci's criticism of the culturalist analysis of emigration from southern Italy. He emphasizes that the society that loses emigrants avoids reflecting on the phenomenon of migration itself. The unsolved issue of the economic and social backwardness of the South makes Gramsci think about the conditions compelling people to emigrate & the accompanying process of inner migration. Knowing the danger of pure culturalist explanation, Gramsci turns to the historical background of migration, based primarily on economic processes. What makes Gramsci's writings such a valuable contribution to the solving of the problems of multinational & multicultural coexistence is that he does not reduce the social problems associated with differing degrees of modernity to the relationship between 'native people' & foreigners, but defines these differences as a problem of modern consciousness in general....».
