Peasants, serfs, untouchables, slaves, laborers, and prisoners are not free to speak their minds in the presence of power. These subordinate groups instead create a secret discourse that represents a critique of power spoken behind the backs of the dominant. At the same time, the powerful also develop a private dialogue about practices and goals of their rule that cannot be openly avowed. In this book, renowned social scientist James C. Scott offers a penetrating discussion both of the public roles played by the powerful and powerless and the mocking, vengeful tone they display off stage-what he terms their public and hidden transcripts. Using examples from the literature, history, and politics of cultures around the world, Scott examines the many guises this interaction has taken throughout history and the tensions and contradictions it reflects. Scott describes the ideological resistance of subordinate groups-their gossip, folktales, songs, jokes, and theater-their use of anonymity and ambiguity. He also analyzes how ruling elites attempt to convey an impression of hegemony through such devices as parades, state ceremony, and rituals of subordination and apology. Finally, he identifies-with "ations that range from the recollections of American slaves to those of Russian citizens during the beginnings of Gorbachev's glasnost campaign-the political electricity generated among oppressed groups when, for the first time, the hidden transcript is spoken directly and publicly in the face of power. His landmark work will revise our understanding of subordination, resistance, hegemony, folk culture, and the ideas behind revolt. 606 $aPassive resistance 606 $aPower (Social sciences) 606 $aDominance (Psychology) 606 $aInterpersonal relations 606 $aSocial groups 615 0$aPassive resistance 615 0$aPower (Social sciences) 615 0$aDominance (Psychology) 615 0$aInterpersonal relations 615 0$aSocial groups 676 $a303.6/1 700 $aScott$b James C.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0148325 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779129803321 996 $aDomination and the arts of resistance$9511116 997 $aUNINA
