description It is argued in this article that different types of intellectuals have existed over time—organic, revolutionary and ‘public’. Revolutionary intellectuals are organic intellectuals of the dominated classes, who are committed to the transformation of society.

Yet, even revolutionary intellectuals can undergo metamorphosis over time, whether in NGOs, state bureaucracies or universities.
