Notes

  • Parent-Child Relations: The primary site where class position, obedience, and worldview are transmitted. Parents reproduce in children the skills and subjection required by the Regime.[1]
  • Teacher-Student Relations: The hierarchical pedagogical bond in which knowledge is dispensed selectively and in forms that ensure respect for the socio-technical division of labour and class domination.[2]
  • Clergy-Congregant and Media Producer-Consumer Relations: Asymmetrical bonds in which meaning, morality, and normality are defined by elites and consumed by masses. Hollywood, Bollywood, Capital Records, Twitter, CNBC, Fox, etc.
  • Patriarchal and Gendered Relations: The social organization of reproduction around binary gender roles that subordinate reproductive labour and ensure the domestication of women’s bodies for the production of future workers.[3]
  • Intergenerational Wealth and Debt Relations: The legal and familial ties that bind descendants to the accumulated advantages or disadvantages of their ancestors, reproducing class stratification across time.
