N2  - In this paper, we argue that ideology is fought over through lived environments. In making this argument, we build on Antonio Gramsci's writings on hegemony. In particular, we extend the analysis of the terrain over which hegemony operates from civil society to urban environments. Here, we argue that the socio-natural relations established through everyday activities are crucial to the consolidation (and contestation) of particular worldviews. Overall, we seek to put Gramsci to work in understanding the politics and the possibilities in the informal settlement of Inanda and more generally within post-apartheid South Africa.<p />
