hegemony

Read a random definition: F.SUPP. 2D

A quick definition of hegemony:

Hegemony: When one person or group has a lot of power and control over others, it's called hegemony. This can happen in different ways, like a country dominating other countries or a company having a lot of influence over an industry.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Hegemony refers to the influence, authority, or supremacy that one group or state has over others. It can also refer to the striving for leadership or dominant authority of one state in a confederacy or union over the others.

Examples:

  • The hegemony of the United States in the global economy is often criticized by other countries.
  • During the Cold War, the former Soviet Union had hegemony over Eastern Europe.

These examples illustrate how one group or state can have power and control over others, either through economic or political means. Hegemony can lead to unequal power dynamics and can be a source of conflict between nations.

Definition: Heinous refers to a crime or its perpetrator that is shockingly atrocious or odious.

Example: The serial killer's heinous crimes shocked the entire community.

This example shows how heinous is used to describe a crime that is particularly gruesome or disturbing. It is often used in legal contexts to describe the severity of a crime and can impact the sentencing and punishment of the perpetrator.
