Gramsci as Theorist of Politics
This paper briefly discusses some of Antonio Gramsci's contributions to the theorization of politics that Peter Ives elucidates in Gramsci's Politics of Language. I also highlight a few of the many illuminating aspects of Ives's in-depth but accessible exploration of Gramsci's approach to language and politics, such as Gramsci's distinction between regressive and progressive forms of hegemony and his antiessentialist and antipositivist theorizati…
Economic Common Sense and the Depoliticization of the Economic
This article theorizes and begins to explore the extent to which academic and nonacademic discourses contribute to the reproduction and legitimacy of the economic status quo. The author argues that economic practices in the United States are often depoliticized in at least two different ways: They are naturalized or essentialized conceptually, and political control over them is limited. Drawing on antiessentialist Marxian economic theory, Gramsci…

Drawing on the debate between t…
