Hegemone - The Meaning of Hegemony

Gramche: How is it possible that the proletariat can feel so comfortable participating in a system that keeps them in chains? Gram begins his explanation by evoking and re purposing a word that had been thrown around all throughout human history. The root of the word comes from the greek word meaning to lead. In other words, the term hegemone implied the threat of physic dominance over a population of people.
