• 書目註：Intellectuals and the People is extensively researched and engages with prominent theorists in order to intervene in contemporary debates about the relation of intellectuals to society. It setsout to demonstrate that discussions of the intellectual and society focus upon the vulnerability ordeclining authority of the intellectual and overlook the extent to which supposed differences betweenintellectuals and 'other people' support wider existing social and political inequalities.
