The process by which consent is engineered through control of information, media, education, and cultural narratives. Unlike Imposed Consent (which uses direct pressure), Manufactured Consent works indirectly: shaping what people believe, what seems reasonable, what appears inevitable, until they consent to arrangements that may not serve their interests. The term comes from Herman and Chomsky's analysis of mass media, but applies broadly: advertising manufactures desire, education manufactures worldview, news manufactures reality. People genuinely believe they're choosing freely—but the options, the framing, and the information were manufactured by powers they never see.
