The said issue is also found in literary works which becomes the media for the author to deliver the ideology he wants to convey, as contained in Semilyar Ikan Memakan Anjing-anjing, a short story by Absurditas Malka. This story tells the resistance of the fish character to the dominance of the power of the dogs’ character based on the science ideology. Besides, there is also a conflict between the ideology of science and the ideology of violence which both then become a weapon to achieve world hegemony. This study aims to analyze the ideological forms that exist in Semilyar Ikan Memakan Anjing-anjing short story based on the perspective of Gramsci’s ideological-hegemonic framework. The research paradigm is using a qualitative descriptive approach. In the process of collecting data, researchers conducted reading and note-taking techniques. These data were then processed through a process of inference and qualitative-conceptual analysis. The results of the analysis showed the representation of fish as a subordinate society and dogs as the representation of the dominant society. It is also found that there is a close link between the ideology of science and ideology of violence that is oriented to the world hegemony agenda.
