Books, themselves dependent products of capitalist technologies, were the mode by which dominant discourses were deployed, and were seen by “the church, moralists, and pedagogues” as “the primary tool in achieving these ‘pedagogical’ goals.” One can identify within this structure an early apparition of advanced capitalism’s auto-mimeticity: hegemonic modes of production are utilized to inscribe hegemonic discourses and modes of behavior upon [child] subjects which then perpetuate the original modes of production, and concurrent social conditions. In this way, renunciation is achieved and the survival of the adult/civilization is secure in the endless reproduction fo the totality.
