In this new introduction to Antonio Gramsci''s thought, James Martin reconstructs the central analytical themes of the Italian Marxist''s famous Prison Notebooks : the ''organic'' intellectuals, the relation between state and civil society, and the revolutionary party. The contemporary relevance of his concept ''hegemony'' to the analysis of state legitimacy is critically considered and the limitations of Gramsci''s historicist Marxism to understanding social complexity are outlined. The book will be of interest to undergraduates and teachers in the social sciences.
