Abstract
The objective of this article is to delineate two perspectives for the analysis of neoliberalism based on Stuart Hall’s thought. In this regard, the article not only addresses Hall’s approach to Marx and Gramsci’s thought, but also Hall’s analysis on the crisis of British society, while a cultural, social, and political phenomenon as it appears in his books Policing the crisis (1978) and The hard road to renewal (1988). Therefore, this article complexifies Stuart Hall's “Althusserian moment” as well as his “Gramscian gaze” for understanding the main theoretical dilemmas of the 1970s and 1980s. Finally, this paper observes the place of racism and the production of common sense as pillars of the analysis of the hegemony crisis.[1]
