Sumario:Gramsci stands out for his creativity in dealing with Marxism, deepening themes related to superstructural aspects of capitalist domination, answering questions about the transition strategy to socialism, considering national-popular will and the various economic-social formations. The author of Quaderni del cárcere opened up possibilities for thinking about different social structures existing in the ‘East’ and the ‘West’ from a strategic perspective of transition to socialism, in societies with an uneven development. In this article, based on his Marxism, linked to reading regional particularities, we emphasize how Gramsci is concerned with analyzing the causes of the socialist revolution’s defeat while proposing a worker-peasant front line tactic that responds to the aspirations of subaltern groups and classes. He was the first Marxist author to use the categorysubaltern with a theoretical density not previously experienced, and it is through this category that we highlight his encounter with Latin America. In the brief conclusions, we point out how the Italian militant enriched the original categories of classicalMarxism, such as the very concept of class.
