media fandom has been an object of academic inquiry since the 1990s, with much of the early theories of fandom describing it as a largely subversive subculture. however, media fandom became increasingly mainstream with the rise of digital culture in the second decade of the 21st century.
this has led to conflicts between fans, and between fans and producers, over who gets to speak for fans, and what power they should have to shape contemporary popular culture.
prof. flegel will discuss the history of media fandom and its transformation over time, with a focus on how the mainstreaming of fandom has influenced current political discourse in the u.s. and canada.
阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 will hold prof. flegel’s talk in the ingenuity theatre located in the cases building.
