Caesarist solutions can operate through parliament without any heroic personality

Evidence

The problem is to see whether in the dialectic “revolution/ restoration” it is revolution or restoration which predominates; for it is certain that in the movement of history there is never any turning back, and that restorations in toto do not exist. … Besides, Caesarism is a polemical-ideological formula, and not a canon of historical interpretation. A Caesarist solution can exist even without a Caesar, without any great, “heroic” and representative personality. The parliamentary system has also provided a mechanism for such compromise solutions. — Antonio Gramsci, Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 855

Categorization

• DEFINE: Establishes the key insight that Caesarism is a structural mechanism, not a matter of personality — the formula can work through parliamentary compromise.
• XREF: The claim that history never restores in toto and compromise solutions can arise without a hero resonates with modern analyses of authoritarian capture through nominally democratic institutions. — connects to: Modern Caesarism operates through party and union coercion, not military coups
• corroborated: 2 independent passages support this claim — Antonio Gramsci, Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 855
