A Study about Journalism from Antonio Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to consider about journalism from Antonio

Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks. There were some issues that Gramsci’s writings

were applied in sociology of the mass media, however, a part of which were argued

within fragmentary viewpoints. Therefore, I have not only examined how

journalism was directly depicted, but discussed it with the other main themes

in Prison Notebooks ― “intellectuals”, “party”, “Americanism and Fordism”

and “philosophy of praxis”. In conclusion, I give three criticisms ― parties as

press; everyone be a journalist; war of information ― on the further studies.
