Title: Disrupting the Gender Binary: Discipline and Struggle on MySpace
Authors: Arca, Barbara
Issue Date: 14-Nov-2008
Abstract: This project offers a critical overview of one of todays most interesting phenomena online: MySpace. In it I engage in a Foucaultian analysis of this popular social networking site to see the ways in which MySpace resembles and acts as a disciplinary mechanism which contributes to the generation and perpetuation of normative identity discourses.
