Cases / The American Landing / Organic intellectuals
The American Landing · dossier
Filed as concept or doctrine, standing in two authored connections inside The American Landing, dated 1932 to 1967.
Working definition from the source
Intellectual strata formed with a social group that provide coherence, organization, awareness, and political direction. Gramsci contrasts them with intellectuals who present themselves as autonomous from class history.
Originating text
Selections from the Prison Notebooks, pp. 5-14
Role in the Long Insurgency
This concept is part of the opening intellectual architecture. Later transmission, adoption, and implementation must be established through separate relationship evidence.
Current limits
The prison notebooks are fragmentary and Gramsci's terminology develops across different notes. Avoid reducing the concept to a slogan.
Chronology repair
Systematized in the 1932 special Notebook 12, especially Q12 §1, from earlier work on intellectual organization and class leadership.
