  • 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 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.

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