Südfrage und Subalterne
The concept of the subaltern is one of Antonio Gramsci's concepts that plays a central role in current critical theories, not least in the context of postcolonial studies. In order to understand how Gramsci developed it and then gave it the complex meanings that make the concept so fruitful for contemporary debates, it is worth taking a look at his early writings on the southern question, which have now been published in a new translation.
