This first content module addressed the concept of “Hegemony.” It is a concept that challenges the “why’s” societal traditions that don’t necessarily have a rationale reason other than being “the way it’s always been done.” One example is the idea of erecting and decorating a Christmas tree for a holiday that is based on the idea of celebrating the birthday of a religious figure.
The idea is to take that example and to apply it to the notion of a “patriarchal capitalistic system” with certain assumptions about various sectors of society, who are presumed to be smarter, more deserving, etc.
For this extra credit exercise, see what you can discover in your own world about the concept of hegemony. Observe everyday things around you and consider common assumptions that we make in our everyday lives. List at least 3 of your personal hegemonic assumptions that are not necessarily based in a specific reality, need or factual data. Enter your 3 examples in the tab.
You can earn up to 15 extra credit points for this activity. Please note that for extra credit assignments, there is a “0” in the points window. That is done so your points will be “extra” and those opting not to engage, will not be penalized.
