@ExWizard Don't forget a piece of crap, Oh I mean a Marxist, and a Prisoner. If a concept cannot be easily understood than it is ussually foolishness or there is simply not enough info to understand the concept. Can you please tell me in 250 characters what Cultural Hedegmony is, all i have is the Patrick Buchannan version..:) Give me the short version, I could not stand to read Gramsci..or Marcusa:) I would then have to gouge my eyes out an mail them to Sardinia.:) DTT Thank you!

This is rather the process of containmenet between mainstream culture and subculture ! i don't see where hegemony is round here ??

Am I seriously hearing an explanation of cultural hegemony that sounds more like a conservative's take on society and culture? Fail.

haha this is bulshit, not cultural hegemony at all

Ah, yes...well, as Aunt Augusta said, "Never speak disrespectfully of Society, Algernon. Only people who can't get into it do that."

funny but good analogy
This is more of an explanation of 'Transformismo' then Gramsci's notion of Hegemony (rather, one of the three modes of hegemony as explicated by Anderson). It also seems weird to call him a political scientist. He was a revolutionary, a journalist, and then a, above all else, a theorist.
As a graduate student doing work on Gramsci I would advise anyone who thinks they got what 'cultural hegemony' is out of this video to head down to the library and be ready to read a lot.
