Gramsci, Marxist Reading - "Girl"

What is being pointed out in the concept of Hegemony by Gramsci is “A domination of a set of ruling beliefs and values through consent rather than coercion.” That is, beliefs adopted by the society where everyone agrees how a government should be set up or controlled through popular sovereignty which is the power of the people. Moreover the political leadership of the working class in a democratic revolution. Capitalism maintained control not just through violence and political or economic force but also ideologically in which through a hegemonic way of living the beliefs of the middle class become the common sense values of all through agreement. The need for educators to encourage the working class through intellectual development. This means that the ruling class and the subordinate exchange ideas, knowledge, and legislature through agreement rather than by force where such force in a ruling class is practiced by totalitarian governments. Such concept from Marxist theory explains that this can be done to avoid opposition from the people against the State.
The other reading with “Girl” discusses a literary aspect in symbolic terms and can be interpreted in the following terms. The mother is the government and the daughter is the means of production. The guiding behavior or “moral precepts” that everyone in society needs to fulfill in a conscientious manner. The more lessons the girl knows from the mother, the more productive the society will become in factories through the orders of the government. As it is told in the second paragraph “the mother reproduces herself both biologically and socially in her daughter, thereby fulfilling her labor as a mother, just as she was produced by her mother.” It does not matter how productive you are as long as you do your job and not deviate, because if you do you don’t get the bread (wage). The last paragraph states, “Such is the condition of the working class: It does not progress beyond the perpetuation of its own labor". Meaning that there is no social advancement in a communist society, there is equal class with equal pay. You can be a professional worker or a unprofessional worker, the progress of the working class does not make a difference but must work reasonably productive.
