Social reorganization, hegemony and humanitarian intervention
Abstract
This article seeks to explore to what extent the interaction between the Gramscian concepts of “political” and “civil” society (that consists the basis of Gramsci’s conceptualization of hegemony) are important to establish a security environment and, consequently, could be understood as an instrument of conflict prevention and/or resolution. In spite of this, the socio-economic re-arrangement imposed by the US intervention led to a complete lack of Iraqis societal autonomy and representation. Therefore, it is argued that the starting point to reach a reasonable level of “peace” is necessary first to bear in mind the quest of hegemonic projects within societies, and thus re-organizes its representativeness.
