Reihe: Critical Assessments of Leading Political Philosophers

From the sociology of modern capitalism to state theory and cultural and media studies, Gramsci's ideas have become a central component of mainstream social and political thought since the publication of his writings, in English, in the 1960s. In particular, his concept of 'hegemony', denoting the struggle for ideological dominance by social classes, has been fundamental to the understanding of power in modern states. Over the past thirty years, Gramsci's ideas have been influential in the following areas:

* Marxist Political Theory

* The Sociology of Culture and Ideology

* Political Analysis and State Theory

* Cultural Studies

* Critical International Relations

* Post-structuralist Political Thought

With both a general introduction and individual volume introductions and including articles translated from Italian for the first time, this is the only collection of its kind and the first systematic collection of over thirty years worth of critical commentary on this influential figure.
