Abstract
When dealing with the analysis of power relations in the Americas, hegemony is one of the most frequently-employed concepts. Nevertheless, its popularity obscures the fact that there is no consensus on what hegemony actually stands for. In the following, some major debates since the post-war period are traced back in order to illustrate central understandings of hegemony in both North- and South-America.
