Gramsci's Conception of ""Organic."" 4. Human Nature. 5. Materialism and the Possibility of Ethical Life. 6. Concluding Remarks."ReviewsEsteve Morera has written a lucid and provocative book that challenges Gramsci's conception of materialism. Through a detailed analysis of the Prison Notebooks, Morera demonstrates how philosophical materialism connects to understandings of the philosophy of praxis, organicism, human nature, ethics, and freedom. Ultimately, as Morera argues, returning to the question of materialism has the potential to provide the foundation for ethico-political praxis, the revitalization of the socialist project, and the creation of a new civilization. -Marcus E.
