Gramsci generalized the dual perspective beyond its tactical origins in Zinoviev

Evidence

Although its original formulation by Zinoviev was due to mainly tactical considerations, Gramsci seems to have continued to see it as preferable to the “right” line of 1926 28 and the “left” line of the Third Period, and to have felt that its directives could be generalised for all periods when “frontal attack” was not immediately possible. — Antonio Gramsci, Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 2186
