Using Gramsci, Michele Filippini teases out a number
of previously ignored aspects of Gramsci’s works to create a book
that stands apart from previous analyses. While Filippini does
examine the aspects of Gramsci’s thought that have long attracted
scholars—including his thinking on hegemony, organic
intellectuals, and civil society—she foregrounds new concepts,
including the individual, crisis, and space and time. The result
is a rethinking of Gramsci for our era that offers a number
of promising new ways forward.
