摘要

通过这篇文章,我们考察了美国政治宣传的历史和惯例,并批判性地思考了HBO的《守望者》是如何回应和代表警察与白人至上主义之间的历史关系的。我们认为,虽然《守望者》明确批评了美国警察中白人至上主义暴力的历史,但这部剧再现了几个宣传惯例。《守望者》将实施暴力的核心执法角色描绘成英雄,将主要的警察角色提升为最终全能的正义仲裁者,将白人至上主义执法角色描绘成异常的个人渗透者(又名恐怖分子)。“坏苹果”),并与执法部门的不同成员合作创建。在当代政治宣传中展示了这个案例研究之后,我们考虑科幻系列如何通过代表废奴主义者的未来来更有意义地回应废除警察和监狱的运动。

Watchmen, Copaganda, and Abolition Futurities in US Television
Through this article, we examine the history and conventions of copaganda in the United States, and critically consider how HBO's Watchmen has responded to and represented the historical relationship between policing and white supremacy. We argue that while Watchmen works to explicitly critique the history of white supremacist violence in US policing, the show reproduces several copaganda conventions. Watchmen depicts central law enforcement characters who commit violence as heroes, uplifts the main police character as an eventually almighty arbiter of justice, portrays white supremacist law enforcement characters as anomalous individual infiltrators (a.k.a. 'bad apples'), and was created in collaboration with various members of law enforcement. After presenting this case study in contemporary copaganda, we consider how science fiction series can more meaningfully respond to the movement for police and prison abolition through representing abolitionist futures.
