Article Abstract:

The Italian intelligentsia has played the ideal role of the intellectual. The association between intellectuals and political power is distinguished by fidelity, indifference and disclaimers. Attaining freedom from political power has always meant a loss of legitimation. Intelligentsia always defines its role on its own and Italian intellectuals are categorized into five different kinds in terms of five different historical phases which are the organic, the professional, the neo-corporatist, and the neo-universal intellectual.
