Authors:Antonio Di Meo Abstract: Antonio Gramsci found himself thinking and acting in a field of highly acute intellectual tensions, in which he very quickly understood and soon came up against the limits of the Marxism of his time. Amongst those fields of knowledge regarded as being in crisis at the turn of the twentieth century were science and the philosophy – positivism – that to a large extent had up to then gone alongside it; this could not but have its repercussions within the socialism of Marx and Engels that, in comparison with other types, had acquired a distinctive nature in so far as it was ‘scientific’. There was, then, discussion of the ‘bank-ruptcy of science’ most of all in the wake of a celebrated article in 1895 by the literary scholar Ferdinand Brunetière, in response to the secularist positions held by Ernest Renan. From this stemmed a wide-ranging debate touching Gramsci, then still at high school, and the Italian culture of his time; significant developments of this may be noted in his later writings right up to the Prison Notebooks, in particular as regards the ideology of ‘progress’.

Authors:Nerio Naldi Abstract: A sentence contained in an interview by the journalist Yvon De Begnac with Mussolini suggests that Mussolini may have read some parts of the Notebooks written by Gramsci while in prison in Turi. The article, in Italian, considers on what occasions Mussolini’s interest in Gramsci’s notebooks might have been aroused and when some of them could have been more easily taken from Turi, brought to Rome and returned to Turi, leaving Gramsci unaware of it.

Authors:Andrés Tzeiman Abstract: El siguiente artículo se propone analizar las contribuciones a la teoría política realizadas por diversos autores latinoamericanos en un evento académico llevado a cabo en México en el año 1980: el seminario de Morelia titulado “Hegemonía y alternativas políticas en América Latina”, publicado bajo la forma de libro cinco años después con el mismo título. En ese entonces, el momento político en la región latinoamericana estuvo signado por una doble circunstancia en la que se inscribieron las producciones intelectuales del seminario: por una parte, el predominio de las dictaduras militares en el Cono Sur, y por la otra, el ascenso revolucionario en Centroamérica. Esas coordenadas políticas hicieron de la academia mexicana un espacio inédito de encuentro de la intelectualidad crítica de la región, y en su interior, el seminario de Morelia se constituyó en un auténtico mojón en la trayectoria de los debates sobre la obra de Antonio Gramsci en América Latina. Asimismo, dicha actividad tuvo lugar en el contexto de las discusiones que en la Europa latina fueron conocidas como “la crisis del marxismo”, las cuales tuvieron fuertes resonancias en la teoría política latinoamericana. En ese marco, este trabajo busca indagar en los abordajes desplegados en el seminario de referencia en torno de tres problemáticas teóricas: la crítica al “reduccionismo de clase”, la construcción de un nuevo orden social y la cuestión de los sujetos políticos y las formas organizativas en la estrategia socialista.

Authors:Giovanni Semeraro et al. Abstract: 200 years after 7 September 1822, when Don Pedro I, Crown Prince of Portugal, pro-claimed the Independence of Brazil, this article presents a critical analysis of the event, highlighting the contradictions of this historical period and the challenges that arise for the formation of Brazil as a nation. Situated within the process of modernity established by capitalist globalization, the ‘independence’ of Brazil occurred as a subordinate insertion in world geopolitics. Contrary to the official discourse of a sovereign country and the mystified narratives of ‘the cordial man’ and ‘racial democracy’ spread among the population, these pages question the process of formation of a country founded on genocide, slavery, the exclusion of great part of the population of basic rights, dis-crimination and violence systematically practised to block the constitution of a demo-cratic project of a national-popular character. This notwithstanding, the second part of the article shows how, over these 200 years, a myriad of admirable social and popular struggles have been fertilizing the ground for Brazil to completely free itself from the colonial condition and become an effectively independent and sovereign nation.
