DESCRIPTION:[b]Seminar: The civic imagination: Resistance\, contestation a
 nd activism in participatory culture\n\nProfessor Henry Jenkins is giving
  a keynote presentation.\n\nFrames of Fandom: From Fan Public to Fan Acti
 vism[/b]\nHow might we deploy the ever-expanding body of Fandom Studies s
 cholarship to revitalize debates around the nature of the public sphere a
 nd the potential of democracy? How does the collective concept of fandom 
 align with classic concepts of publics and counterpublics or imagined com
 munities? Can we speak of a public sphere of the imagination?  Tapping a 
 broad range of examples (from the empathetic publics surrounding Steven U
 niverse to the feminist debates around Barbie in China\, from the Q-Anon 
 conspiracy theories in the United States to the Lightstick revolution in 
 Korea or the use of the One Piece Straw hat pirate flag as an oppositiona
 l symbol in Indonesia)\, this talk explores how the kinds of public disco
 urse that emerges within fandom may spill over into activism for social c
 hange. This talk draws on ideas being developed in conjunection with Robe
 rt Kozinets for the Frames of Fandom book series.\n \n[b]Henry Jenkins[/b
