RENDUELES, César. The Construction of Hegemony in Illiberal Democracies. A Reflection on the Concept of "Organic Intellectual" in Gramsci. Eidos [online]. 2023, n.39, pp.184-202.  Epub 19-Abr-2023. ISSN 1692-8857.

The crisis of legitimacy of representative democracies and the economic globalization project has placed the power of certain intellectual groups, traditional or emerging, to intervene in the public sphere and legitimize or transform the current political and economic paradigm at the center of public debate. The popularization of concepts such as "post-truth" is related to a transformation of the role that had been historically attributed to experts and intellectuals in democratic systems and the appearance of new figures capable of mobilizing collective sensitivity. In this context, an intensification of the reception of the work of Antonio Gramsci is taking place, as a source of analytical utilities. This article proposes a revision of the notion of "organic intellectual" as an illuminating tool for the contemporary tasks of political philosophy.

Palabras clave : Gramsci; organic intellectual; hegemony; neoliberalism; historical bloc.
