ANATOMI TEORI HEGEMONI ANTONIO GRAMSCI

Antonio Gramsci is a great intellectual among the left, who is called the
greatest thinker after Karl Marx. Gramsci's ideas are contained in many articles
published in the mass media, and in his works such as; Prison Notebook, The
Modern Prince and Other Political Writing, Selection from Prison Notebooks,
Letters from Prison, Selection from Political Writing, Selection from Cultural
Writing, and so on.
Of all the works and writings, hegemony is considered as the central and
original idea developed by Gramsci. The hegemonic theory is seen to have brought
about great change and led to a debate of thought over theories of social change,
especially for those who want radical and revolutionary change.
Gramsci's concepts of hegemony, civil society, political society, counterhegemony, war of position, war of movement, organic intellectuals and their role in
social transformation are ideas that are considered brilliant, and make important
contributions to the development of social theories, and foster critical political
awareness. His concept of hegemony also encouraged the re-formulation of class
character, the social forces and the true meaning of power and domination. These
things are the basis of writing this article.
