{"product_id":"hegemony-james-martin-9781509521616","title":"Hegemony","description":"\u003cp\u003ePower rarely works by force alone: it also rules by winning hearts and minds. States, classes, and social groups all seek political dominance by exerting political, ideological, or cultural leadership over others. This idea - hegemony - is a subtle, complex one, which is too often applied crudely.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this succinct introduction, political theorist James Martin skilfully examines these nuances and shines a new light on hegemony. He introduces its component ideas and critically surveys the most influential thinking about hegemony, from Gramsci's theory of hegemony as a revolutionary strategy and Marxist theories of the state, politics, and culture to the Post-Marxist project of radical democracy. He then considers the concept's critical role in analysing international politics and global political economy, and evaluates the criticism that hegemony is too state-centric to truly capture the dynamics of contemporary struggles for emancipation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis lucid and accessible guide to hegemony will be essential reading for all students of radical politics and social and political theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Martin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1509521615\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781509521616\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/12\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.58h x 5.51w x 0.63d","brand":"James Martin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44068187308287,"sku":"9781509521616","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ee7119a2-025e-445f-8302-4a5d5b079fbb.jpg?v=1685417549","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hegemony-james-martin-9781509521616","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
