Creative industries are often promoted as key for economic, social and cultural development, particularly in countries of the Global South. In Argentina, the impact of the pandemic nurtured cultural workers’ organization and collective action, which brought to public attention the precarious conditions of cultural labor, and brought into question the centrality of individual and private initiatives known as ‘culturepreneurship’ within culture production. This article discusses the issue through an approach to cultural labor in general, and theatre and live music in particular, based on interviews and focus groups with 23 cultural workers in the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area. We argue that cultural labor precarity presents a specific set of characteristics that are not only material but also related to its symbolic and subjective character, which public policy makers and cultural workers themselves need to consider in order to improve these conditions in the post-pandemic period.
创意产业往往被视为经济、社会和文化发展的关键,尤其是在全球南方国家。在阿根廷,疫情的影响培育了文化工作者的组织和集体行动,这引起了公众对文化劳动不稳定条件的关注,并使人们对被称为“文化企业家”的个人和私人倡议在文化生产中的中心地位产生了质疑。本文通过对布宜诺斯艾利斯大都会区23名文化工作者的采访和焦点小组,从文化劳动的角度,特别是戏剧和现场音乐的角度,讨论了这个问题。我们认为,文化劳动的不稳定性呈现出一系列特定的特征,这些特征不仅是物质的,而且与其象征性和主观特征有关,公共政策制定者和文化工作者自己需要考虑这些特征,以便在后疫情时期改善这些条件。

In this article we introduce the concept of soft nationalism through a case-study analysis of short videos by US-born rapper MC Jin (Jin Au-Yeung), who is of Chinese background. Jin's creative output, we argue, with its cross-cultural and grassroots invocations of Chinese identity, ethnicity, tradition, language and belonging, complicates existing theories of nationalism. To address these complications we develop the term ‘soft nationalism’, to describe forms of nationalism that are neither ‘hard’, ‘hot’ and bellicose nor ‘banal’ or ‘everyday’. Like soft power, soft nationalism carries intent but speaks quietly, and is practised everywhere but often found in China, in the context of a recent surge of participatory online nationalism.
本文通过对华裔说唱歌手金短视频的个案分析,引入软民族主义的概念。我们认为,金的创造性输出,以及对中国身份、民族、传统、语言和归属的跨文化和草根调用,使现有的民族主义理论复杂化。为了解决这些复杂问题,我们发展了“软民族主义”一词,用来描述既不是“硬”、“热”和好战的,也不是“平庸”或“日常”的民族主义形式。与软实力一样,软民族主义也有其意图,但却悄无声息,在最近参与式网络民族主义激增的背景下,这种做法随处可见,但在中国也经常出现。

‘When it comes to the true crime community, Taylor is a legend’: Social and symbolic capital among murderabilia fans “说到真正的犯罪群体,泰勒是一个传奇”:默多克粉丝中的社会和象征资本

This article explores and clarifies the usage of social and symbolic capital as applied to fan studies. It illustrates the author's definitions with a case study from the neglected arena of dark fandom. I argue that ‘social capital’ should be used to refer to the network of friends and associates agents possess within a subculture, whether dyadic, triadic or multidirectional, but that to qualify as social capital, there must be mutual recognition of the tie. I illustrate this argument through a case study of the online presence and persona of Taylor James, the owner and proprietor of leading murderabilia auction site CultCollectibles.org. ‘Murderabilia’ refers to items formerly possessed by or associated with celebrity criminals, particularly serial killers. I further establish that contra Thornton, we do not observe mainstream condemnation generating subcultural capital within this sphere, but rather, mainstream media attention can be negotiated by appeals to traditional forms of expertise.
本文探讨并阐明了社会资本和象征资本在粉丝研究中的应用。它通过一个被忽视的黑暗粉丝领域的案例研究来说明作者的定义。我认为,“社会资本”应该用来指代代理人在亚文化中拥有的朋友和同事网络,无论是二元的、三元的还是多向的,但要符合社会资本的资格,必须相互承认这种联系。我通过对泰勒·詹姆斯(Taylor James)的在线形象和个人形象的案例研究来说明这一论点。泰勒·詹姆斯是murderabilia拍卖网站CultCollectbles.org的所有者和所有者。“Murderabiia”指的是名人罪犯,尤其是连环杀手以前拥有或与之有关联的物品。我进一步证实,与桑顿相反,我们并没有观察到主流谴责在这个领域内产生亚文化资本,相反,主流媒体的关注可以通过诉诸传统形式的专业知识来协商。

Beyond peace: Media encounters between Israeli Jews and Palestinians as a new potential for connection in the face of violent conflict 超越和平:面对暴力冲突,以色列犹太人和巴勒斯坦人之间的媒体接触是一种新的潜在联系

Peace is usually studied by looking at nation-states. Recently, peace scholars have become interested in peace found in the everyday lives of ordinary people. Focusing on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, I argue that media scholars can contribute to this effort because they are well-equipped to capture fleeting manifestations of everyday peace. However, the problematic legacy of peace in Israel/Palestine necessitates a different conceptual framework. I highlight encounters in and through media between Israeli Jews and Palestinians and contend that they present opportunities for constructive dialogue. I demonstrate this point by analyzing the Israeli television show Arab Labor, focusing on its production process, and the plight of Jewish and Palestinian characters on the show. By fusing text and context, I suggest that media do not persuade people to believe in peace; instead, media encounters, both on and off the screen, function as cultural forums for discussing complex issues undergirding violent conflicts.
和平通常是通过观察民族国家来研究的。最近,和平学者对普通人日常生活中的和平产生了兴趣。以巴以冲突为重点,我认为媒体学者可以为这一努力做出贡献,因为他们有能力捕捉到日常和平的短暂表现。然而,以色列/巴勒斯坦和平遗留下来的问题需要一个不同的概念框架。我强调以色列犹太人和巴勒斯坦人在媒体上或通过媒体接触,并认为这为建设性对话提供了机会。我通过分析以色列电视节目《阿拉伯劳工》来证明这一点,重点是它的制作过程,以及节目中犹太人和巴勒斯坦人的困境。通过融合文本和上下文,我建议媒体不要说服人们相信和平;相反,媒体接触,无论是在屏幕上还是在屏幕外,都是讨论暴力冲突背后复杂问题的文化论坛。

The rise and fall of the Synthetic: The mediatization of Canada's oil sands. 合成油砂的兴衰:加拿大油砂的媒介化。

Patrick McCurdy

The concept of the Synthetic is developed to trace and trouble the prevailing popular mythology of Alberta's oil sands and place the omnipresence of petro-hegemony into focus in a time of crisis and transition. The Synthetic is theorized as a period of petroculture beginning in the late 1960s with the rise of Alberta's oil sands industry together with a rise in oil sands narratives, docudrama, and the emergence of mediated or synthetic politics reliant upon processed images. Attention focuses on three mediated moments within the Synthetic beginning with the banned 1977 CBC docudrama The Tar Sands and the reaction of Premier Peter Lougheed. This signals the power and grip of oil's hegemony. Second, the short film Synergy produced for Expo 86 captures the thickening of synthetic culture and oil's saturation of the public imagination. Finally, the controversy manufactured by Alberta's Canadian Energy Centre over the animated film Bigfoot Family suggests petro-hegemony's loosening grip.

Synthetic的概念是为了追踪和挑战阿尔伯塔省油砂的流行神话,并在危机和过渡时期将无处不在的石油霸权置于焦点之中。“合成”被认为是石油文化的一个时期,始于20世纪60年代末,随着阿尔伯塔省油砂工业的兴起,油砂叙事、纪实剧的兴起,以及依赖于处理过的图像的调解或合成政治的出现。人们的注意力集中在合成人体内的三个调解时刻,从1977年被禁的CBC纪录片《焦油砂》开始,以及总理彼得·洛希德的反应。这标志着石油霸权的力量和控制力。其次,为86年世博会制作的短片《协同》捕捉到了合成文化的增稠和石油对公众想象力的饱和。最后,阿尔伯塔省加拿大能源中心就动画电影《大脚怪家族》制造的争议表明,石油霸权正在松动。

Online gathering in times of physical (im)mobility: Facebook practices of Malagasy mothers in France 身体(im)流动时代的在线聚会:法国马达加斯加母亲的Facebook实践

Based on a thematic content analysis of 813 in-group posts, the study presented in this article aimed to analyse first the implications of (social) immobility and lockdowns for vulnerable communities such as immigrants and mothers among them due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and then how Facebook groups helped these communities to cope with such challenges. The analysis was conducted within Le Groupe des Mamans Gasy de France – a Facebook group restricted to France-based Malagasy mothers. It revealed that the group was used as a safe space of benevolence amidst the Covid-19 pandemic, a space for self-acceptance and empowerment, and a space for Malagasy cultural and identity anchoring. These findings align with Leah Williams Veazey's ‘migrant maternal imaginaries’ and Laura Candidatu's ‘diasporic mothering’ conceptual frameworks.
本文中的研究基于对813条群内帖子的主题内容分析,旨在首先分析新冠肺炎大流行导致的(社会)不流动和封锁对移民和母亲等弱势社区的影响,然后分析Facebook群组如何帮助这些社区应对这些挑战。这项分析是在法国母亲协会(Le Groupe des Mamans Gasy de France)内进行的,该协会是一个仅限法国马达加斯加母亲参加的Facebook群组。报告显示,在新冠肺炎大流行期间,该团体被用作一个安全的慈善空间,一个自我接受和赋权的空间,以及一个马达加斯加文化和身份锚定的空间。这些发现与Leah Williams Veazey的“移民母亲想象”和Laura Candidatu的“流散母亲”概念框架一致。

Almost South–South solidarity: The frustration of K-pop fans (but not true fans) in South Africa 几乎南南团结:南非韩国流行音乐粉丝(但不是真正的粉丝)的沮丧

This article illuminates the contours of digitalization in a less studied light of emotion. Based primarily on interviews of South African audiences consuming Korean digital creative contents, the research illustrates their affective responses, such as empathy and collective pride but also frustration. A particular focus goes to highly educated audiences characterized by the #RhodesMustFall movement in South Africa. Grounded in a theoretical framework which combines notions of distinction in cultural sociology and South–South solidarity in international relations, this study explains how K-pop fans in South Africa become holders of highbrow empathy trapped in the loop between digital connection and physical marginalization. In the hollow loop, South African audiences are distinctively invited to become fans yet prevented from advancing their own modes of cultural appropriation. While the international visibility of Korean creative contents may bring collective pride to fans in South Africa, they struggle to find their place in return.
这篇文章以一种较少研究的情感之光来阐明数字化的轮廓。该研究主要基于对消费韩国数字创意内容的南非观众的采访,阐明了他们的情感反应,如同理心和集体自豪感,但也有挫折感。南非的#罗德必须下台(#RhodesMustFall)运动特别关注受过高等教育的受众。本研究结合文化社会学的区分概念和国际关系中的南南团结,以理论框架为基础,解释了南非的K-pop粉丝如何陷入数字连接与物理边缘化之间的循环中,成为高层次同理心的持有者。在这个空洞的循环中,南非观众被邀请成为粉丝,但却被阻止推进他们自己的文化挪用模式。虽然韩国创意内容的国际知名度可能会给南非粉丝带来集体自豪感,但他们却很难找到自己的位置。

This article situates the digital self-care industry within a neoliberal framework in which I critically analyze the effects of modern postural yoga through platforms and apps. In specific, I argue that the neoliberalization of digitally mediated self-care through Instagram, YouTube, Calm and Yoga-Go not only place the onus of health and wellbeing on individuals, they also endanger the physical health, mental health and digital privacy of their users. In turn, the consequences of economic and political systems that have created many of the social conditions that push people to seek ways in which they themselves can alleviate the pressures and stresses of everyday life continue to be ignored.
这篇文章将数字自我护理行业置于一个新自由主义的框架内,在这个框架中,我通过平台和应用程序批判性地分析了现代姿势瑜伽的影响。具体而言,我认为,通过Instagram、YouTube、Calm和Yoga Go实现的数字媒介自我护理的新自由化不仅将健康和幸福的责任推给了个人,还危及用户的身体健康、心理健康和数字隐私。反过来,经济和政治制度创造了许多社会条件,促使人们寻求自己可以减轻日常生活压力和压力的方法,其后果仍然被忽视。

The memefication of Squid Game demonstrates the cultural dynamics of media reception in changing media environments. The dissemination of memes facilitates public participation and democratic use of media, however memes also aggravate cultural prejudice and contribute to the segregation of social groups. This study investigates ideological influences involved in spreading Squid Game memes. Squid Game and associated memes demonstrate the ambivalence of cultural dynamics at the global level and identity issues involved in consuming media and pop culture. Theories of postcolonialism and critical discourse analysis are applied to examine media production and distribution of Korean media, and its influence on the reproduction cultural prejudice in changing media environments. Online memes provide the particular impetus underlying contestations between cultural diversity and ideological conservation in our changing media environment.
《鱿鱼游戏》的模因化展示了在不断变化的媒介环境中媒介接受的文化动态。模因的传播促进了公众参与和媒体的民主使用,但也加剧了文化偏见,造成了社会群体的隔离。本研究探讨鱿鱼游戏模因传播过程中的意识形态影响。《鱿鱼游戏》和相关模因展示了全球层面文化动态的矛盾心理,以及消费媒体和流行文化中涉及的身份问题。运用后殖民主义理论和批评话语分析来考察韩国媒体的媒体生产和发行,以及在不断变化的媒体环境中其对再生产文化偏见的影响。在我们不断变化的媒体环境中,网络模因为文化多样性和意识形态保护之间的争论提供了特殊的推动力。

Online memes provide the particular impetus underlying contestations between cultural diversity and ideological conservation in our changing media environment.","PeriodicalId":47307,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cultural Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43082425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Budapest, Hungary, has become one of the largest media production centers in Europe, even though the country has little local domestic production and few exports. Rather, nearly all production spending in Budapest comes from servicing foreign productions. This article explores the role that location managers in Budapest play in producing a recognizable sense of Budapest as a specific place, both on and behind the screen, in an effort to make the city “sticky” for global media capital. Throughout pre-production and production, location managers produce a sense for foreign creative workers that Budapest is both versatile and flexible as a shooting location. Ironically, while their efforts generally erase the specificity of Budapest, creating the impression that the city is as film-friendly as any other media capital, this erasure is precisely what makes Budapest sticky for transnational media productions.
匈牙利的布达佩斯已经成为欧洲最大的媒体制作中心之一,尽管这个国家几乎没有本土制作和出口。相反,布达佩斯几乎所有的制作支出都来自为外国作品提供服务。本文探讨了布达佩斯的外景管理人员在制作布达佩斯作为一个特定地方的可识别感方面所起的作用,无论是在屏幕上还是在屏幕背后,都是为了使这座城市对全球媒体资本具有“粘性”。在整个前期制作和制作过程中,外景经理给外国创意工作者一种感觉,即布达佩斯作为一个拍摄地点既多才多艺又灵活。具有讽刺意味的是,虽然他们的努力通常抹掉了布达佩斯的特殊性,给人的印象是这座城市和其他任何媒体之都一样喜欢电影,但正是这种抹掉使布达佩斯对跨国媒体制作具有吸引力。
