Una lettura trans-politica del progressismo

Starting from Del Noce’s trans-politica vision of contemporary history, this article argues that Gramsci’s interpretation of Marx’s philosophy of praxis had foreseen main aspects of postmodern ideology. Both postmodern thinking and Gramscism are a way of thinking based on the divinization of immanence just like Marx argued. Therefore, both Gramsci and postmodern ideology have been deeply influencing progressive political culture which is currently hegemonic in the intellectual and academic networks of the West. As a consequence of this fact, Marxism failed on the political level but its historical materialism constitutes the deep grammar of the current system of beliefs of our societies. Nevertheless, the final outcome of the cultural, philosophical and political progressive ideology is nihilism (Del Noce).
