Abstract
This study is a content analysis of jokes produced and presented by stand-up comedians that in various parts of the world deal with a common theme, the inclusion of the Arab and the Muslim communities in modernity. This kind of humor became popular in many countries of the Middle East and Africa, similar to what is occurring in other continents. Countries like Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Egypt nowadays tolerate to some degree dissent proposed by such humorists. Seeing the Arab and Muslim societies to laugh at themselves is a new and startling occurrence, since it breaks with the stereotypical image that they are unable to bear the satire and irony for being dominated by fear and conservatism.
期刊介绍:
The journal Comunicação, Mídia e Consumo – Communication, Media and Consumption – is published in printed and digital versions by the Programa de Pós-Graduação em Comunicação e Práticas de Consumo da ESPM-SP – Postgraduate Programme in Communication and Consumption Practices of ESPM-SP – Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing – Superior School of Propaganda and Marketing and it is evaluated as Qualis A2; its editorial line is to approach relevant topics of the field of Communication, understood here as a complex socio-cultural process and practice. The articles must be well-founded and mobilise different authors of a given theoretical tendency so that they develop a critical reflection about the approached thematic topics. In the case of empirical articles, besides the contextualisation and the descriptive stage of the material, we privilege articles which present a theoretico-interpretative of the aspects that are observed in the corpus.
