Gramsci's Political
Thought: An Introduction

by Roger Simon with an introductory essay by Stuart Hall
A lucid, easily comprehensible account of the ideas put forward
by Gramsci and their relevance to modern industrial and post-industrial
societies. It discusses the concepts of hegemony, the national-popular,
passive revolution, ideology, civil society and the revolutionary
party.
Selections

and translated by Quintin Hoare and Geoffrey Nowell Smith
Contains many of the key writings by Gramsci including
The Modern Prince, and Americanism and Fordism and observations
on the state and civil society, Italian history and the role of
intellectuals. The extensive introduction and notes set the work
in political and historical context and help readers find their
way into Gramsci’s thinking.
Further Selections
from the Prison Notebooks
edited
and translated by Derek Boothman
Brings together Gramsci's writings on religion, education, science,

of ideology at its different levels and the exploration of the concepts
of subalternity, corporate consciousness, hegemony and counter-hegemony.
