Abstract

While fandom is a dominant girlhood trope, few accounts examine faith in the context of girls’ fandom. Addressing this gap, using a feminist poststructural analysis, I draw on interviews and participant observation to locate fan communities as a space in which Muslim girls can enact citizenship. Combining youth cultural studies, girlhood studies, and fan studies, I explore how Muslim fangirls of the Norwegian teen web-drama Skam (2015–2017) draw on their desire for recognition and their creativity as cultural producers to engage in participatory storytelling that challenges popular representations of Muslim girls. This process enables the production of communities rooted in shared interests, experiences, and identities. I suggest that fandom should be recognized for its capacity to generate new meanings of citizenship for minority youth.

穆斯林少女时代，Skam Fandom和DIY公民

虽然粉丝圈是一个主导的少女时代的比喻，但很少有报道在女孩粉丝圈的背景下审视信仰。为了解决这一差距，我利用女权主义后结构分析，通过采访和参与者观察，将粉丝社区定位为穆斯林女孩可以制定公民身份的空间。结合青年文化研究、少女时代研究和粉丝研究，我探索了挪威青少年网络剧《斯卡姆》(2015-2017)的穆斯林粉丝如何利用她们对认可的渴望和作为文化生产者的创造力，参与到挑战穆斯林女孩流行形象的参与式叙事中。这一过程使基于共同利益、经历和身份的社区得以产生。我认为，应该认识到狂热，因为它有能力为少数族裔青年创造新的公民意义。
