«Politica totalitaria» e «costituentismo» nei Quaderni del carcere di Antonio Gramsci

This contribution focuses on the notions of “totalitarian politics” and “constituentism”, and on the link between them in Antonio Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks. The analysis of this relation shows that, for Gramsci, the opposition between fascism and communism can be fully understood only if these two forms of politics are situated in the same post-liberal space, a space open to the experimentation of a new kind of democracy.
