Some Characteristics of Hegemony

0

Derived from some jailbird's scribblings:

i) Passage of the dominant class from economic to political class consciousness;

ii) Superstructure of domination built up out of the base or structure of society as a whole.

iii) Economic-corporate interests of dominant group adopted by subordinate groups.

iv) A single combination of ideas become dominant and pervasive throughout society.

v) Moment of a historical bloc: synthesis of economic, political, intellectual, and moral domination.

vi) Universalization of interests of dominant group which are presented as not its own narrow corporate-economic interests, but national interests shared by subordinate groups.

vii) State mediates or fashions the hegemony by being the mechanism of compromises between the dominant and subordinate groups such that the interests of the dominant group prevail.
