The essay consists of two parts, dealing respectively with the use of the concept hegemony before and within Gramsci's prison writings. The first part attempts to reconstruct a sort of "prehistory" of the term, from its Greek origin to the long eclipse in Roman times, in the middle Ages and in early modernity. I then go on to its nineteenth-century revival, first in the political vocabulary of the promoters of Italian and German national unity, and then in the Marxist debate of the Second International. But it is among the Bolsheviks that the concept took on that pregnant meaning which Gramsci began to reflect on during his stay in Moscow (1922-23), then in the period in Vienna (1923-24) and above all after his return to Italy (1924-26). The second part of the essay attempts to trace diachronically the developments of the reflection on hegemony in the Notebooks, in which the particular meanings of "political hegemony" and "civil hegemony" emerge, no longer referring solely to the proletariat but to any social class or group fighting to conquer and / or maintain power. This struggle takes place predominantly on the terrain of civil society and as protagonists sees individuals (the intellectuals), public and private institutions, and parties (the modern Prince), in an inextricable nexus between national and supranational realities. The outcome of Gramsci's reflections constitutes a free and bold translation of Lenin's original concept of hegemony which, moreover, he maintains is already present in embryo in the historical writings of Marx.

Contrary to what the first editors and interpreters of Gramsci maintained, the expression "philosophy of praxis" is not a simple expedient to which he had recourse in order to avoid writing "historical materialism" and, thereby, to get round the prison censorship. The term, instead, implies a thoroughgoing rethinking of Marxism on his part which took place throughout the course of his reflections in the Notebooks, a rethink which has roots in the 1926 essay on the Southern Question. As well as taking up again the thought of Labriola (in whom the expression "philosophy of praxis" already figures), this "revision" of Marxist philosophy implies not only a definitive detachment from Marxism-Leninism, but an "epistemological break" with his own previous political writings and, above all, a new reading of Marx's work, with particular attention paid to the Theses on Feuerbach and to the Preface to A Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy. Additionally, this also taking place in relation to the deep upheavals in the international political scenario between the end of the 1920s and the 1930s, which saw the definitive closure of the perspective of a world proletarian revolution. This led Gramsci to go in depth into the concepts of hegemony, the intellectuals, the State, civil society, war of position, passive revolution, and structure and superstructure, in an absolutely original reflection whose endpoint is the constitution of a new political subject in the modern world, namely the political party.

Central to his reflections in the Prison Notebooks is instead the concept of the "integral State" or "extended State", the dialectical union of State and civil society, which allowed him to interpret the new social and political situation typical of much of the twentieth century. This new situation is characterized, on the one hand, by a new relationship between the economy and politics and, on the other, by the growing importance of the "apparatuses of consent" flanking the State's traditional repressive apparatuses. For Gramsci the apparatuses of consent are sometimes public and sometimes apparently private but, in any case, their function is the same, namely to reinforce the hegemony of the dominant class, and to propagate a traditional common sense, thereby making it difficult to challenge the given set-ups of power. Since there has been a change in the State - the terrain of the struggle for power - the concept of revolution must also change. This is no longer an isolated insurrectionary event, as it was in the nineteenth century, but a long struggle for the conquest of "trenches and emplacements", in other words the conquest of the centres that produce and extend consent., table_contents=, titolo_collana=, collocazione=, relazioni_titolo_collegato=[Polis, Revista de Ştiinţe Politice], relazioni_identificativo=[], relazioni_tipo_relazione=[padre], relazioni_numero_volume=[4], relazioni_numero_issue=[2(12)], relazioni_start=[13], relazioni_end=[28], relazioni_pagine=[], relazioni_forma_visualizzata=[03.2016 - 04.2016], relazioni_forma_normalizzata=[20160301-20160431], relazioni_tipo_data=[], relazioni_luogo=[], relazioni_editore=[], relazioni_paese=[], soggettivoc=[Marxismo, Comunismo Italiano, Egemonia, Stato - Società Civile], subjectvoc=[Marxism, Italian Communism, Hegemony, State - civil society], note_riservate=, source=, recordInfo=, identifier=IT-GRAMSCI-BIB00001-0021437, recordOrigin=, condizioni_accesso=, dateIssued=20160301-20160431}]

As the struggles from Zapatismo to Chavismo and from the Arab Springs to Spain's Podemos show, liberation is not possible without counter-hegemony.

This is a new approach to one of the greatest political theorists, Antonio Gramsci. Gramsci's Prison Notebooks are one of the most popular Marxist texts available and continue to inspire readers across the world. In Using Gramsci, Michele Filippini proposes a new approach based on the analysis of previously ignored concepts in his works, creating a book which stands apart. Including chapters on ideology, the individual, collective organisms, society, crisis and temporality, Using Gramsci offers a new pattern in Gramscian studies aimed to speak to the broader audience of social sciences scholars. The tools that are provided in this book extend the uses of Gramsci beyond the field of political theory and Marxism, while remaining firmly rooted in his writings. Working from the original Italian texts, Filippini also examines the more traditional areas of Gramsci's thought, including hegemony, organic intellectuals and civil society. This book will be perfect for scholars and students of Gramsci's thought, whether they are experts, or coming to his ideas for the first time.

This contribution investigates the presence in Gramsci's work of the family of terms relating to "subaltern", with particular attention being paid to the prison writings. The term itself, of military origin, was widespread in political and journalistic reflections before the First World War; there are numerous very well-known examples of its use in Gramsci, first as an adjective, and then as a noun. It designates both the most marginal classes and the bloc of forces grouped around the "fundamental" revolutionary class, namely the working class, which at least potentially struggles for hegemony. The semantic ambivalence is not without its problems, but this probably lies at the base of the term's current popularity. In Gramsci, moreover, the term (or family of terms) undergoes further expansions in meaning, passing on to designate - during his ongoing prison reflections - not only classes and social groups, but also individuals and the characteristics of their being in relation to others. And in including ever more cultural and not just social or socio-cultural characteristics, it almost always has a clearly negative meaning when compared with the positive "hegemonic" pole.
In this essay we set off on the quest for translation-translatability leitmotiv, remembering that Gramsci was "a revolutionary, a historicist" and, at the same time, a student with a solid background in glottology at the University of Turin. A first starting point, long before the prison years, is the debate on Esperanto, in which Gramsci took part in January 1918. One may consider the idea of the translation of historically determined languages, to which Gramsci later gave so much importance, as the negative side of any "Esperantism". Parallel to this, as from 1919, revolutionary political action came more and more to be presented as a form of translation. The metaphor of the "translation" into the West of the Russian experience, which even in 1925 Gramsci was presenting as typically Leninist, then however was of use to him in the Notebooks as an instrument for theoretical and political emancipation from the Russian experience itself. At the theoretical level, the thought of Labriola was one of the other important sources for the centrality of the idea of translation in Gramsci. It was exactly the text in which Labriola indicated the need to reformulate historical materialism as a "philosophy of praxis" that insisted on the necessity to translate the "arms and methods of criticism" adapting them "from country to country". This text, evoked in one of the very first Notes on Philosophy (Q4, §3, May 1930; in English Prison Notebooks, vol. II, 1996, p. 140; Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 1971, p. 388), is decisive for Gramsci's reflection on the philosophy of praxis as the reciprocal translation of philosophy and politics. This consideration itself is based on certain texts of Marx's (the Theses on Feuerbach and the Holy Family), and was developed in a particularly thoroughgoing way in October and November 1930, months that were crucial for the entire politico-theoretical elaboration of the Notebooks. Gramsci here rethinks Marxism, beginning from the idea of translation both in order to combat schematisms leading to an artificial division of the real between economic noumena and ideologico-political appearances (Croce), and in order to take it away from any dogmatic reduction to an abstract logic or theoretical Esperantism (Bukharin). 1932 was the year of the further and last detailed development of the notion. This now allowed him to think the "reduction" of all philosophies to "a moment of historico-political life" (Q10, II, §6; in English Further Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 1995, p. 306). Moreover, it also became decisive for an understanding of the relation of the philosophy of praxis not only to French politics and classical German philosophy, but also to the economics of David Ricardo. In parallel with this, again in 1932 and also in 1933, in his letters to Julia (Jul'ka) and Tanja, Gramsci makes explicit his conception of the political task of the translator, who must always make use of the "historically determined language" (Lettere dal carcere, 1996, p. 613-614; in English Letters from Prison. Antonio Gramsci, vol. II, 1994, p. 207) of the civilization that adopts a foreign text. In the end, translatability appears as the instrument that allows one to think the unity of theory and practice that, for Gramsci, belongs typically to the thought of Marx and which is the foundation of the superiority of the philosophy of praxis over any other philosophy.
This essay is devoted to Gramsci's reflection in his Prison Notebooks on language discourse and on languages; its aim is to show how this reflection constituted one of Gramsci's main contributions to Marxism, which up to that time had not had an autonomous theory of language discourse. In this, particular importance is assumed by the notion of translatability, developed in an original direction in the Notebooks. The essay therefore deals with the two most immediate premises of Gramsci's reflections. The first of them is constituted by the debate on language and nationalities in the revolutionary Russia of the 1920s, in relation to the new federal set-up of the soviet State and to the start of anti-illiteracy campaigns. The second premise is constituted by the thought of Antonio Labriola who, while not having been able to provide any personal contribution to linguistic thought, had shown great interest in this subject, which he knew above all through the writings of Wilhelm von Humboldt and Heymann Steinthal.
This paper compares two Marxist interpretations of Machiavelli in order to better understand why, twice over, Marxists have returned to Machiavelli. I argue that Antonio Gramsci and Louis Althusser, the authors of the interpretations discussed here, both find resources in Machiavelli's work for the development of a non-deterministic Marxism that emphasises the role of political practice in enacting transitions between social forms.

Esattamente quarant'anni fa, nel 1975, usciva in Francia, presso l'editore Fayard, il volume Gramsci et l'État. Pour une théorie matérialiste de la philosophie di Christine BuciGlucksmann, pubblicato l'anno successivo dagli Editori Riuniti, nella traduzione italiana di Claudia Mancina e Giuseppe Saponara, con il titolo di Gramsci e lo Stato. Si trattava di un libro incentrato sul pensiero politico gramsciano che si presentava come pionieristico e per certi versi appare ancora attuale nel tentativo di seguire "il ritmo del pensiero" dei Quaderni tenendo conto "des retours multiples sur une note, des versions différentes et corrigées d'un même texte" che ne impediscono una "exposition linéaire"
