What is "posthegemony"

n. The theory that hegemony and ideology of discourse can no longer properly reflect the social order. Posthegemony also finds that history is not, as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl%20Marx described it, a class struggle, but rather a "struggle to produce class".

Posthegemony or post-hegemony is a concept which designates a period or a situation in which hegemony is no longer said to function as the organizing principle of a national or post-national social order, or of the relationships between and amongst nation-states within the global order. The concept has different meanings within the fields of political theory, cultural studies and international relations.
