Abstract

Reading Joseph Buttigieg's edition of Gramsci's Prison Notebooks represents for me and, I imagine, for others, the discovery of a new Gramsci—at each turn of the page, either stumbling upon themes and concerns of which we had been largely unaware or encountering familiar concepts in an entirely different context. Gramsci pushes Marxian theory forward, and the text of the Notebooks allows us to do the same with Gramsci's work. But for all their richness concerning the issues of culture, politics, and intellectuals, one of the traditional areas of Marxism—political economy—appears to be largely overlooked in the Notebooks.
