Examining the emergence and subsequent demise of intellectual
identification with the French Communist Party between 1945 and
1989, Sudhir Hazareesingh argues that, after 1978, political
conflicts between the Communist leadership and party intellectuals
led to an erosion of support. These conflicts were sharpened by the
party's institutional decline during the 1980s. Dr Hazareesingh
links these internal factors with wider ideological changes during
the 1970s and 1980s: the decreasing relevance of class-based
politics, the explosion of the myth of radical change, the
reconsideration of the goals of political commitment, and, finally,
the rejection of the Soviet model, all contributed significantly to
an altered political climate. Based on a critical examination of
the available literature, in both French and English, this
systematic exploration of the role of intellectuals in French
politics also explains why this social group has been so prominent
in public life throughout the modern era.
