Hegemony

An excerpt from Why Johnny and Janey Can't Read, and Why Mr. and Ms. Smith Can't Teach:

And on the other hand, some researchers are beginning to expose the dirty little secret of the academy, that there is a well-established hegemony of power throughout the academic system that is bent on devaluing certain types of research, certain classes of researchers, and generally maintaining the status quo.
But they are fighting an ultimately losing battle...

Fuck the SSHRC process at this factory university.
