		Just as the politico-economic and intellectual results of World War II moulded the lives of the last two generations, from industrial Europe and the U.S. to the most remote and backward regions, the outcome of present develop ments will affect the life of future generations in all aspects.
		Workers' protest against government and employers' policies and for improvement of their living conditions goes on continuously in various countries.
		Workers' socialist rank should be rallied to the battleground of today's decisive economic and political struggles.

	Worker-communist Party of Iraq
		Massive intellectual and cultural U-turns are in progress: from the resurgence of religious fanaticism, male-chauvinism, racism, tribalism and fascism to the collapse of the individual's rights and status in society, to the abandoning of the life and livelihood of millions, old and young, at the mercy of the free market.
		But workers are also "free" in yet another sense: they are `free` from the ownership of means of production, and so in order to live, they have to sell their labour power for a certain length of time, in exchange for wages, to the capitalist class - i.e.
		Workers' state was replaced by a new bourgeois state with a massive bureaucracy and military apparatus based on a state- capitalist economy.

	For an Organization of Intellectual Workers
		In the meantime, the intellectual worker, due to his lack of organization, is less well protected against arbitrariness and exploitation than a member of any other calling.
		But intellectual workers should unite, not only in their own interest but also and no less importantly in the interest of society as a whole.
		An outstandingly important task for an organization of intellectual workers at the present moment is to fight for the establishment of a supranational political force as a protection against fresh wars of aggression.

	Talk:Intellectual worker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Note: The terms brain worker and knowledge worker are, I think, also in general use.
		Sure, we need intellectuals, indeed everybody should do a bit of 'intellectual work' if they can, but people should do a bit of physical work as well.
		I was introduced to that term in an ethics class (well, "knowledge worker") on the topic of intellectual property, and that was totally outside the context of anarchism and communism.

	Intellectual Property
		Now if you follow the idiotic "scarcity" thesis, you've created to classes of worker: worker who produce material goods and have a natural property right for their output, and intellectual worker (by far the most important factor in modern societies) that are second class citizens in the economy because their rights are not protected.
		The expiration of intellectual property upon the death of the inventor is incentive to kill inventors.
		Intellectual property should give the creator of an idea the exclusive (but transferable, sublicensable, etc.) right to make copies of that idea for other people (whether they are temporary copies, like radio broadcasts, or permanent copies).

		The truth, however, is that it is the bourgeois system itself that is founded on organised violence; violence against people, against their bodies and minds, against their thoughts and emotions, against their hopes and aspirations and against their struggle to improve their lives and the world they live in.
		In its form, workers' state is a free state which organises the direct decisions and will of the masses of the working people themselves.
		By its nature, workers' state is a transient state withers away as soon as the aims of the revolution have been realised.

	PHI101 -- LEISURE BASIS OF CULTURE
		Intellectus is the name of the understanding insofaras it is the capacity of simplex intuitus, of that simple vision to which truth offers itself like a landscape to the eye..
		The ancients regarded intellectus as being already beyond the sphere alloted to man. And yet it belonged to man, though in one sense superhuman; the pure ly human by itself could not satiate man's powers of comprehension, for man, of his very nature, reaches out beyond the sphere of the human.
		The "worker" is characterized by an extreme tension of the powers of action, a rediness to suffer in vacuo unrelated to anything, and complete absorption in the social organism, itself rationally planned to utilitarian ends..

	Intellectual worker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An "Intellectual worker" (brain worker or knowledge worker) is anyone employed due to their knowledge in a subject manner, rather than their ability to, for example, perform manual labor.
		The term can also refer to people outside of information technology but who nevertheless are hired for their knowledge of some subject, such as lawyers, teachers, and scientists.
		The term "knowledge worker" was first used by Peter Drucker in his 1959 book, Landmarks of Tomorrow.

	Weekly Worker 509 Thursday December 18 2003
		These ‘intellectual commons’ were the artisans’ and intellectuals’ equivalent of the physical commons attached to manors and peasant villages, which were in theory owned by the manorial lord, but in practice controlled by the peasant community.
		The English transition from feudalism to capitalism famously involved the enclosure of the physical commons between the 16th and 18th centuries and, thereby, the expropriation of the peasantry as a class.
		The rise of intellectual property is thus one of the many signs in today’s society of the decline of capitalism.

	Philosophy of Democratic Government 24
		Intellectual qualities devoid of certainty and necessity are of great human and social worth when their growth centers about habitus and supplements them with an element of flexibility and charm.
		In Aristotle's philosophy of labor it seems that the only functions endowed with the privilege of generating intellectual culture are the so-called "architectonic" ones; the manual laborer, exemplified by the mason, is described as a mere agent of execution, whose virtue consists mainly in carrying out the orders that he is given.
		Considering, further, that there is inevitably a certain amount of interdependence between intellectual functions, it is reasonable to fear that a man deprived of a chance to govern himself in the process of labor will have a hard time learning to govern himself in moral and social life.

	A Better World: Part 1
		But workers are also 'free' in yet another sense: they are `free` from the ownership of means of production, and so in order to live, they have to sell their labour power for a certain length of time, in exchange for wages, to the capitalist class — i.e.
		The workers have to then buy their means of subsistence — the goods they themselves have produced — in the market from the capitalists.
		The gigantic power of capital in the world today and its ever-expanding domination of the economic, political and intellectual life of the billions of inhabitants of the earth is nothing but the inverted image of the creative power of work and of working humanity.

		Thus, if a dispute arises between employer and worker about the rights for objects of industrial property created by the latter, the Russian laws demand actually that employer should prove in court, that the given subjects are created by worker just in connection with performing his official duties or a specific assignment received from employer.
		Thus, the Russian labour laws establish, that separate categories of workers shall be obliged, in line with their labour contract, to carry out the entrusted scientific research or other intellectual activity.
		The amount of damage, which is subject to charging to worker, shall not be decreased, if damage is caused by crime committed for mercenary ends.” Thus, worker in Russia bears sizeable responsibility for disclosure of a confidential information of employer far from in all cases.

		Thus, where temporary workers are used and worker's compensation insurance is provided by the temporary agency, the employer is not immune from suit if that temporary employee is injured at work.
		As a general rule, the more control a business exercises over a worker, the more likely that the business will be considered the worker's employer.
		Examples of control over a contingent worker that will establish an employee/employer relationship for purposes of the above statutes include: setting the hours of work; training the worker; providing tools or equipment to the worker; requiring the work to be performed on the employer's premises; and reporting requirements.

		But knowledge in philosophy is directed upon the whole of being and begins with an intellectual intuition of "being, as such" rooted in the sense of touch.
		It is a condition of the soul and as such utterly contrary to the ideal of "worker" in each and every one of the three aspects under which it was analysed: 1)work as activity, 2)as toil, 3)as a social function.

		Accusations of being merely a "damned undercutting intellectual" are met with claims of consistency "in my critical role." (p.42) Widmer's essay follows the failures of others who have responded to defining the intellectual: a sloppy application of terms.
		Public intellectuals know that history is where we swim, that we are in it, that we can't see over or around it, that it is our ineluctable task to go through it.(p.355)
		The responsibility of intellectuals includes also the recognition that we cannot live above or apart from our own time and what it imposes on us...to have the courage of loyalty....Loyalty signifies, simply enough, love of the family that nourished you and taught you principles of moral reciprocity.

		The authors of literary, musical, artistic and scientific works play a spiritual and intellectual role in society which is to the profound and lasting benefit of humanity and a decisive factor in shaping the course of civilisation.
		The history of copyright is the history of mounting contradictions in the legal superstructure, as the changing forms of cultural production altered the social relations of the author, who gradually became a new kind of intellectual worker (a shift which relatively few of them recognised until after Schiller and Marx).
		From the intellectual worker there has now descended the alienated mental worker whom Schiller and Marx foresaw; from the critical consciousness of the artist and the scientist, there have descended the programme producer and the computer programmer

	Peripheral class struggle in Africa and the work of P.P. Rey
		For whatever one’s explicit ideological and intellectual orientation, as an intellectual producer one remains subjected to the largely invisible objective forces of a sociology of knowledge which obtains at a given place and time.
		At any rate, today’s intellectual production in the West is realised in a context which is wholly capitalist, and the patterns of remuneration, expenditure, consumption and career planning of intellectual producers corroborate this.
		A different form of liberating ideology seems to be needed, and we should have far greater insight in the conditions under which such an ideology is being produced, transmitted, implemented, and adulterated or vindicated in the hands of the peasants, proletarians, leaders and politicians.

		All that the workers produce do not belong to them, and thus the more they produce, the more products they produce that are not their own.
		The intellectual component of labor, so integral to uniquely human labor, is wrested away from the individual laborer who toils as a mere appendage to the labor process.
		The workers imbue the products of nature with their labor, and at the end of the production process, the products of nature, now the property of the capitalist, are stripped from the workers.

		Whether he was an oral or a literate intellectual, the key thing was that this third category of interpreter worked in African languages to interpret reality within and without the borders of the country for the consumption of the African community.
		Such intellectuals, writing and talking in languages which the people can speak and understand, could bring all the wealth of their contacts with the languages of the world to enrich theirs.

		Not only has intellectual labour has not only been subjected to the norms of capitalist production, but a new "mass intellectuality" has been constituted between the demands of production and the forms of "self valorisation" that the struggle against work has produced.
		In the big restructured undertaking, the work of the worker is a work which increasingly implies, at various levels, the ability to choose between different alternatives, and thus a responsibility in regard to given decisions taken.
		Behind the label of the "independent or dependent" worker is hidden a true and proper intellectual proletarian, recognised as such only by the employers who exploit them.
