Abstract
Starting from the structural critique of capitalism that Fraser develops in her book on Cannibal Capitalism, the paper aims to highlight the need to strengthen counter-hegemonic practices in the critique of capitalism/neoliberalism not only from a systemic perspective, but from a "cultural" perspective, reformulating Gramsci's idea of hegemony. Considering the dialectic of culture, understood as both a progressive and regressive construct, the text emphasizes the need to elaborate new emancipatory social imaginaries and pragmatic keywords for collective mobilization, with the aim at fortifying transnational public discourses in the critique of violence.
