ANTONIO GRAMSCI
Is power simply a matter of domination and resistance? Or can a ruling power
be vulnerable; can subordinates find their resistance neutralized; and what
is the role of culture in this? Gramsci’s work invites people to think beyond
simplistic oppositions by recasting ideological domination as hegemony: the
ability of a ruling power’s values to live in the minds and lives of its subalterns
as a spontaneous expression of their own interests. Targeting readers
encountering Gramsci for the first time, Steve Jones covers key elements of
his thought through detailed discussion of:
culture
hegemony
intellectuals
crisis
Americanization
In doing so, Antonio Gramsci studies the historical context of the theorist’s
thought, offers examples of putting Gramsci’s ideas into practice in the
analysis of contemporary culture, and evaluates responses to his work.
Steve Jones is senior lecturer in Media and Cultural Studies at Nottingham
Trent University. He teaches and researches in the areas of national identity
and material culture and is co-author of Food and Cultural Studies (2004).
