Gramsci's Political Thoughts
Carlos Nelson Coutinho, 2012
198 pages
Read in 2024.04
🔽 Book review and notes 🔽
It follows his life from when he was a child, lost father early, poor, physical disability, scholarship to Turin, involvement in politics, forms Communist party, arrest, life in prison, non stop writing even in the prison, even with malnutrition and torture. His insistence on the power of workers.
Difficult read as I had little background to Gramsci, and naturally, it keeps referring to his Prison Notebooks, and of course no true knowledge in Marxism.
He’s a back-to-basic Marxist.
“We must prevent this brain from working for twenty years”
“Domination without leadership.
Dictatorship without hegemony”
