Philosophy is a socio-practical activity uniting thought with action

Evidence

A reference to the 11th of Marx’s Theses on Feuerbach , which Gramsci interprets as meaning that philosophy (and, in particular, the philosophy of praxis) is a socio-practical activity, in which thought and action are reciprocally determined. — Antonio Gramsci, Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 2476
