(Included for historical/ theoretical context)

The Italian communist Antonio Gramsci, imprisoned for much of his life by Mussolini, took these idea further in his Prison Notebooks with his widely influential notions of ‘hegemony’ and the ‘manufacture of consent’ (Gramsci 1971).

Gramsci employed the concept “hegemony” to describe a process of “intellectual and moral leadership” that embedded a ruling class across society.
