Recenzje

"There can be no doubt that What Is To Be Done? stands as an important building block in Althusser's understanding of political theory and as a central text for exploring his divergence with historicism. By analyzing the concept of hegemony as an inflated concept which replaces that of class domination and class dictatorship, this book constitutes an important contribution for current debates surrounding Althusser and Gramsci's theoretical production, but also for the broader field of contemporary debates concerning the concept of hegemony and political strategy."Marx & Philosophy Review of Books
