كليد واژه هاي هژموني و ضد هژموني را نخستين بار آنتونيو گرامشي مطرح نمود تا نحوه ي كاركرد اعمال قدرت نرم توسط سيستم حاكم را تشريح كند. در تعريف گرامشي، هژموني به گفتمان هايي اطلاق مي شود كه در آنها ارزش هاي سيستم حاكم گنجانده شده و به شكل نرم خواستار كسب رضايت آحاد جامعه است. در مقابل، ضد هژموني به معناي گفتمان هاي متضادي است كه در مقابل گفتمان هاي هژمونيك مي ايستد و آرمان هاي افراد خارج از دايره قدرت را بيان مي كند. رمان خم رودخانه اثر نايپال درحاليكه به بازتاب هژموني غالب در دوران استعمار و پسااستعمار مي پردازد، همزمان از طريق شخصيت اصلي داستان به افشاگري ارزش هاي حاكم و نهايتا توليد ضد هژموني مشغول است. با اين پيش فرض، پژوهش پيش رو به خوانش اين رمان بر اساس مفاهيم هژموني و ضد هژموني مي پردازد. بر اساس تئوري جامعه شناسي آلتوسري، سيستم هاي حاكم در اعمال ايدئولوژي خود در ساختن شهروندان مطيع و منعطف، به دو روش ابزار هاي ايدئولوژيك حكومتي (آي اس اِي) و ابزار هاي سركوبگر حكومتي (آر اس اِي) متوسل مي شوند. استدلال پژوهش پيش رو بر اين است كه يكي از مهمترين اهداف آثار پسااستعماري، افشاگري كاركردهاي سركوب و ايدئولوژيك در دوران استعماري و پسااستعماري است تا آثار برجا مانده از فرهنگ استعمار را بزدايد و مخاطبان را نسبت به اين كاركرد ها آگاه سازد. نوآوري پژوهش حاضر در خوانشي متفاوت است كه به صورت ساختاري نشان مي دهد كه چگونه آثار پسااستعماري مي توانند به افشاي ساز و كار هاي استعماري بپردازند و به مقابله اي فرهنگي تبديل شوند.

Introduction
The key terms “hegemony” and “counter-hegemony” were first suggested by Antonio Gramsci to describe the soft power in the hands of the ruling system. In Gramsci’s definition, hegemony is related to those discourses in which the ruling system’s values are included and attempted to gain the consent of people in a soft way. In contrast, counter-hegemony means those opposing discourses that stand against the hegemonic discourses and expresses the ideals of the people outside power. While Naipaul’s A Bend in the River reflects the dominant hegemony in colonial and postcolonial era, it is at the same time concerned with exposing the ruling values and producing counter-hegemony.
Background of the Study
Althusser was in search of the ideologies that help Capitalism live through human souls, and be dominant and omniscient in the citizens of his hometown. With the benefit of the constructive system of thought of Claude Lévi-Strauss and Jacques Lacan psychoanalysis and their combination with the traditional Marxism, Althusser was demanding an analysis of different ideologies that elegantly has framed the thoughts and ideologies of a society has satisfied them, and at the same time they are reproducing themselves in the same system. Althusser always had two main questions in his mind, which has framed his Marxist thoughts: first, how a society with reproducing its connections and relationships reproduces itself, and becomes stable through the passing of time; second, what makes the society ready for a social revolution.
Methodology
Althusser mentions two major mechanisms for insuring that people within a state behave according to the rules of that state: Ideological State Apparatuses (ISA) and Repressive State Apparatuses (RSA). ISAs are institutions which generate ideologies that individuals (and groups) then internalize, and act in accordance with. These ISAs include schools, religions, the family, legal systems, politics, arts, sports – organizations that generate systems of ideas and values, which we as individuals believe. Another is what Althusser calls the RSAs that can enforce behavior directly, such as the police and the criminal justice system. Although the ISAs appear to be quite disparate, they are unified by subscribing to a common ideology in the service of the ruling class; indeed, the ruling class must maintain a degree of control over the ISAs in order to ensure the stability of the RSAs.
Conclusion
The main focus of the selected novel is confined to the reign of the "Big M@n" and most of his methods for institutionalizing his ideological system by the help of ISAs. He is well aware that using force and violence alone cannot be done, so he resorted to indirect ideological methods to gain legitimacy and gain public satisfaction. These include projects such as "nationalism" and "extremism" whereby the property of citizens of the descendants of the Congo is confiscated. The government also launches a special kind of school and university, a quasi-modern educational system based on all-European models to train obedient and westernized young intellectuals who lack the creativity and power of analysis. In all of this, the President does not resort to force and RSA feeds such as prisons, police, army and European mercenary troops, wherever necessary, but secretly uses them as far as necessary. So as not to tarnish his image in the minds of his people. But the mistake that this coup dictator is making is that he cannot reproduce his ideology and address its weaknesses according to the needs of society, a principle which Althusser emphasizes. As a result, this method loses its effectiveness over time, and the revolutionary forces of the Liberation Army with their anti-modern ideology destroy all the gains of the former regime.
