Summary/Abstract: Public intellectuals had played a significant role in the process of Montenegro’s sovereignization; in the contemporary Montenegrin state and society their role is still very important, and the focus of their activity has shifted from the statehood issues to the problem of state identity construction. The peculiarities of social and political situation in Montenegro and the traditions of interrelations between the state and the society (including civil society) condition the presence of the specific features of Montenegrin intellectuals which hamper their reckoning among “public intellectuals” in the traditional sense. The paper provides a brief review of the intellectual discourse of modern Montenegro, considers some of the key intellectuals and their role, place and potential in the socio-political life of the country.
