Abstract The mode of an 'organic intellectual' wrote Antonio Gramsci, who formulated the concept, consists not in mere eloquence, but 'in active participation in practical life, as constructor, organiser, ""permanent persuader'…'. Govan Mbeki was distinctive within the leadership of the ANC for his belief that the movement should engage with rural people and their struggles and for his writings, produced over fifty years, which sought to link theory with practice, ideas with actions. For anyone with an interest in SA history.
