Hegemony: The dominace and leadership of one social group
Ideology: Ideas and beliefs based upon the needs of group and classes, can be politically motivated.
Representation: something that represents a belief, object or group etc. e.g. a drawing to represent a person.
Stereotype: prejudging someone on their looks, beliefs or position in society about how they behave and act and placing them in a group.often based on first opinion, for example all people who have hoods have the intention of breaking the law.
I like the fact that you have included examples for some of these however, making connections to specific media related examples would help support your understanding if the terms.
ReplyDeleteFor example, could you find an image from a newspaper article that conformed to your stereotype about hoodies? This could be uploaded to the blog to illustrate your point.
