Abstract
This review examines two anthologies focusing on the work of Antonio Gramsci: Perspectives on Gramsci: Politics, Culture and Social Theory, edited by Joseph Francese, and Gramsci and Global Politics: Hegemony and Resistance, edited by Mark McNally and John Schwarzmantel. Both volumes illustrate the very diverse contexts and fields of inquiry in which Gramsci's writings are being used while also providing close examinations of those writings. The twelve chapters of Perspectives on Gramsci are written by internationally recognized experts from several disciplines, including economics, anthropology, cultural studies, literary criticism, and political science. Gramsci and Global Politics consists of thirteen chapters by authors ranging from established scholars to graduate students, mostly from political science and international relations. Many of the contributions in both volumes return to Gramsci's writings for important insight into current developments. We hope that this is a part of a more general trend away from the perpetual incantation of Gramscian phrases and toward a more substantive engagement with his thought.
