We analyze Estonian history-writing on Estonia's regaining of independence in light of the semiotic theory of hegemony. Besides articulating this theory as a framework for analysis we provide an account for the application of its general categories to history-writing as a specific system of meaning by introducing concepts from theories of history/historical memory. We chart how via representing Estonia's transition in the form of teleological narrative a political antagonism is constructed between the “proponents” and “opponents” to Estonia's independence, and how several important aspects of Estonia's process of transition are peripherized and excluded from the narrative representation of the transition.
