Abstract

This article conducts a collaborative qualitative thematic analysis of in-depth interviews with social media content creators ( N = 53) based in and/or originated from the United Kingdom. It aims to better understand how creators within one peripheral region in Northern England express their labor experiences as both practices of domination and e-resistance. The article contributes an original typology of the relationships between practices of creator domination and forms of individual or collective e-resistance, encompassing varying levels of visibility, targets, sources, and underlying motives. It develops a novel creator workers’ inquiry methodology to establish this multifaceted typology of creator e-resistance. The findings suggest that creator e-resistance should consider the relationships among practices of material, status, and ideological domination, and forms of non-resistance, individual hidden e-resistance, collective hidden e-resistance, and collective public e-resistance.

社交媒体创作者劳动中的支配与数字抵抗艺术

本文对英国社交媒体内容创作者（53 人）的深度访谈进行了合作性定性专题分析。文章旨在更好地理解英格兰北部一个边缘地区的创作者如何将他们的劳动经历表达为支配和电子抵抗的实践。文章对创作者支配实践与个人或集体电子抵抗形式之间的关系进行了原创性分类，包括不同程度的能见度、目标、来源和潜在动机。文章开发了一种新颖的创造者工作者调查方法，以建立这种多层面的创造者电子抵抗类型学。研究结果表明，创作者的电子抵抗应考虑物质、地位和意识形态支配的实践与非抵抗形式、个人隐性电子抵抗、集体隐性电子抵抗和集体公开电子抵抗之间的关系。

期刊介绍： Social Media + Society is an open access, peer-reviewed scholarly journal that focuses on the socio-cultural, political, psychological, historical, economic, legal and policy dimensions of social media in societies past, contemporary and future. We publish interdisciplinary work that draws from the social sciences, humanities and computational social sciences, reaches out to the arts and natural sciences, and we endorse mixed methods and methodologies. The journal is open to a diversity of theoretic paradigms and methodologies. The editorial vision of Social Media + Society draws inspiration from research on social media to outline a field of study poised to reflexively grow as social technologies evolve. We foster the open access of sharing of research on the social properties of media, as they manifest themselves through the uses people make of networked platforms past and present, digital and non. The journal presents a collaborative, open, and shared space, dedicated exclusively to the study of social media and their implications for societies. It facilitates state-of-the-art research on cutting-edge trends and allows scholars to focus and track trends specific to this field of study.
