 note = {This article explores the biography, intellectual influences, and political advocacy of the leading British cultural theorist Stuart Hall. The article elucidates the influence of two Marxist thinkers on Hall’s thought, Louis Althusser and Antonio Gramsci. I first highlight the influence of Louis Althusser’s structuralism and the concept of interpellation on Hall’s critiques of British society in the 1970s. Then, I explain why Hall increasingly turned to Antonio Gramsci’s unorthodox engagement with Marxism. The article argues that Gramscian concepts guided Hall’s scholarly engagement with British politics and society and public advocacy until his death. The article is organized into three sections. The first part introduces Hall’s background and his seminal contribution to the emergence of British cultural studies in the 1950s. The second part examines the ways in which Althusser and Gramsci influenced Hall in the 1960s-80s, and how he wielded their theories to critique British media and racism in the 1970s, and the Social Democratic consensus in the 1980s. The third section concludes with the organic intellectual Stuart Hall who deftly brandished Gramscian thought in his devastating critiques of Thatcherism and New Labour in the 1980s-90s.},
