@OttoPharx I'm pretty sure he uses the word in just its standard sense, which doesn't particularly connote "consent". Standardly, it just means domination over others - usually used in a context where the dominating force is a state or nation, and the dominated are other states or nations.
Tetchy masochism. Noam at its best.

My understanding is that hegemony is rule through consent.
Can somebody tell me in 20 words or less what Chomsky's definition of hegemony is?

@OttoPharx Where did you get an understanding that hegemony isn't primarily associated with domination?
