In parallel with this objective, a Gramscian derived articulation of hegemony is presented in order to analyze the role of the global configuration of capital, state and social relations of production in the formation process of the transnational historic bloc as a new hegemonic constellation. From this point of view, hegemony, in its simple terms, is conceptualized as a prevailing consensus among transnationalizing social forces consist of classes, international institutions, globally-minded, political elites and transnational capitalist class. Briefly stated, drawing on neo-Gramscian approach and theory of global capitalism, this study aims to provide an up-to-date and analytically valid conceptualization of hegemony in the age of neo-liberal globalization.}, number={1}, publisher={Eskişehir Osmangazi University}
