Dette begrepet har jeg hørt før, men i boka “Feral” av George Monbiot var det avsnitt med både opphavsmann og en god beskrivelse (s. 154):
The italian philosopher Antonio Gramsci used the term “cultural hegemony” to describe the way in which ideas and concepts which benefit a dominant class are universalized. They become norms, adopted whole and unexamined, which shape our thinking. Perhaps we suffer from agricultural hegemony: what is deemed to be good for farmers and landowners is deemed, whitout question or challenge, to be good for everyone.
