A sociologia de Gramsci

Abstract

The Cadernos do cárcere can be seen from a sociological perspective. It is possible to find in them many lessons on how to study social and political situations in the light of the classical sociology. This paper aims at showing how many of the teachings on classical sociology, especially those of the French School, can be found in the meditations of Gramsci. There is no worry in showing the influence of the French School in it; au contraire, care is given to enhance the possibility of finding in the Cadernos an acute sociological view, nigh to what is found in the French, proving that the ideas informed by the French were present in the thoughts of those who were studying the reality from itself, not from abstract ideas. © 2007 ANPOCS.
