Notes

  • Guardian-Guarded Relations: The dyadic relationship between those who wield force or authority (police, managers, clergy) and those who are subject to it.
  • Ideological Subject-Interpellator Relations: The relationship between the individual and the institution that "hails" them into subjecthood—calling them by name, assigning them a role, and binding them to an identity that serves the Regime.[1]
  • Patriarchal Family Hierarchy: The gendered and generational power structure within the nuclear family that trains children in obedience and reproduces authoritarian patterns.[2]
  • Manager-Worker Power Dynamics: The direct control of the work environment by supervisors, foremen, and executives over the bodies and time of employees.
  • Clergy-Laity and Teacher-Student Relations: Hierarchical bonds in which spiritual and intellectual authority are concentrated in elites who define truth and morality for the masses.
