  The Lonely Conservative — Authority: 583
  Antonio Gramsci Do you ever wonder how we got here? How did the United State of America go from the “Land of the Free” to what it is today? How does one describe America today? “Home of the Entitled?” In the past I’ve covered how the communists infilatrated our social institutions. See here , here ...

• Dude, wheres my hegemony?

  
  Through The Scary Door — Authority: 123
  Lenin did not invent the party of a new type. The vanguard party is an old concept. In fact it is the only concept. Vanguard and party are a virtual tautology. Whoever heard of a rearguard party? Across the political spectrum you find minorities organised around distinct points of view. Regardless of what they regard ...

  Not PC — Authority: 595
  Skimming the newspapers to check their Berlin Wall coverage, Sean Gabb from Britain’s Libertarian Alliance discovered an unusually good piece in the Daily Mail .  It’s not just unusually good (especially for the Mail ), but it offers a good lesson in activism, as Sean explains in the postscript:     ...

  SpeEdChange — Authority: 104
  The conversation was challenging. In a Critical Studies conversation we had wandered to Michelle Rhee, the head of Washington DCs schools, TFA and Joel Klein/Mike Bloomberg graduate, Time Magazine s favorite educational leader . I said, as I have before, that I believe her policies are racist and colonialist. That ...

• The werewolf and the silver bullet: ANT/Gramsci, pt. end.

  
  Dead Voles — Authority: 417
  As I’ve said recently I quite agree with Duncan that “if intellectuals want to be politically useful in some way, as intellectuals, some of the more useful things they can do are 1) provide an adequate analysis of current social, economic and political conditions; 2) start generating concrete proposals for ...

• ANT/Gramsci, pt. 6: Networks, nodes, relations, alliances

  
  Dead Voles — Authority: 417
  Because of the way the blog medium arose out of the interactive affordances of the internet, each blog, post and comment creates a node in a possible network of relations and alliances. Or they can just sit there doing nothing but taking up space. Whether networks actually come of blogs depends to some degree on ...

• ANT/Gramsci, pt. 5: Emergency!

  
  Dead Voles — Authority: 417
  I mentioned in pt. 3 that Gramsci’s goal of a homogeneous collective revolutionary consciousness might itself be what he called an ‘Enlightenment’ error. And in pt. 4 I poked some fun at the distinctive wigglings of Left intellectuals hoist on this petard. The problem is a fundamentally doomed and therefore ...

  In a post at Crooked Timber on the history of the terms ‘politically correct’ and ‘liberal fascism’ John Quiggin writes At least since the 1970s, the description “politically correct” or, in Australia, “ideologically sound”, had been used within the left to mock those who were excessively concerned ...

• Bourdieu & Gramsci

  
  The Mustard Seed — Authority: 124
  Antonio Gramsci: A short excerpt from a post from my blog The Excerpt Mill : In Bourdieu’s early work with Jean-Claude Passeron, we find the term “the cultural arbitrary” used in a way which seems quite similar to Gramsci’s concept of normative grammar: “In any given social formation the cultural ...

• ANT/Gramsci, pt. 3

  
  Dead Voles — Authority: 417
  I need something or two short, pithy and on-point to frame my talk, perhaps even to pass out to participants. To both validate and complicate the idea that the blog medium can participate in the assembly of networks of Gramscian praxis, consider this from the Prison Notebooks , Q 24 (also in Selections from Cultural ...

  Dead Voles — Authority: 417
  This is the actual title and proposal as submitted to RM. ANT and Blogging as Gramscian Praxis Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks were not written for public consumption. Nevertheless, they often read like blog posts, little condensed nuggets of information and analysis linking to a wide range of observations, readings ...

  Dead Voles — Authority: 417
  I’ve had bits of a thought on some recent blog exchanges on intellectual activism and the role of the left intellectual stuck in my throat for the last little while, and since I’m now right up against my deadline for the Rethinking Marxism talk I have to prepare I’m just going to hack them up in a little pile. ...
