Gramsci’s significance
for education lies in two realms. First, his notion of hegemony provides a way
of understanding in which informal educators function and it gives us the
possibility of critique and transformation. His theory of organic intellectuals
provides a more detailed place of adult education in his thought. The
intellectuals have a crucial role in creating counter-hegemony. The second
realm is in a wider context in which he discusses the traditional education and
schooling and describes the education for the proletariat. This essay will
focus on the importance of Gramsci’s thoughts on adult education. To do this,
the essay firstly will deal with his philosophy and political thoughts which
has a close relationship with his ideas on adult education. Then, this
relationship and his theory of education and intellectuals will be elaborated.
