Resumo: | The current study takes the subculture of fans as being the core of productive consumers, and assumes consumption to be asubjectivation practice based on Foucault's theory, which defines subjectivity as the result of an ethical and aesthetic elaborationprocess. The aim of this study is to analyze how fans elaborate fannish (est)et(h)ics by positioning themselves about mediaproducts during their interactions. In order to do so, the main fan community of the TV series “Game of Thrones” (GoT), a majormedia phenomenon, was analyzed. The genealogy of the subject was the method adopted for analyzing fans’ comments aboutthe saga. Results pointed towards two subject-forms, namely likers and guardians. They are based on moral stylizations thatmodulate fans’ relationships with media products through a single ethics, which was interpreted as poaching the differentpleasures that arise from consumption. The study’s suggestion is that this process reveals what Foucault calls true love, whichcorresponds to the completeness of self in its relationship with the other. |

Así, el presente estudio analiza cómo los fanes elaboran una (est)ética fandomera a través de posiciones en relacióncon productos de medios en sus interacciones. Para ello, examinamos la principal comunidad de fanes de Game of Thrones(GoT), que se ha convertido en un importante fenómeno mediático. El método utilizado es la genealogía del sujeto. Con este fin,analizamos los comentarios de los fanes acerca de la saga. Los resultados apuntan a dos formas temáticas: likers apreciadoresy guardianes. Se basan en estilizaciones morales que modulan la relación de los fanes con el producto de los medios a travésde una ética única, que interpretamos como caza furtiva, una "caza" de diferentes placeres derivados del consumo. Proponemosque este proceso revela lo que Foucault llama amor verdadero, una completitud de sí mismo en la relación con el otro.O presente estudo toma a subcultura de fãs como seio de um consumidor produtivo e assume o consumo como práticasubjetivadora, baseado na teoria foucaultiana que define a subjetividade como resultado de uma elaboração ética e estética.Com isso, o objetivo do estudo é analisar como fãs elaboram uma (est)ética fânica por meio de posicionamentos de si emrelação a produtos de mídia em suas interações. Para tal, analisamos a principal comunidade de fãs da série de TV Game ofThrones (GoT), que se tornou um grande fenômeno de mídia. A genealogia do sujeito foi método adotado para a análise doscomentários de fãs sobre a saga. Os resultados apontam duas formas-sujeito: curtidores e guardiões. Elas se sustentam emestilizações morais que modulam a relação dos fãs com o produto de mídia por meio de uma única ética, a qual interpretamoscomo poaching, uma “caça” por diferentes prazeres advindos do consumo. Propomos que esse processo revele o que Foucaultdenomina verdadeiro amor, uma completude de si na relação com o outro.RAE - Revista de Administracao de Empresas RAE - Revista de Administração de EmpresasRAE-Revista de Administração de Empresas2021-12-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/8510310.1590/S0034-759020220203RAE - Revista de Administracao de Empresas ; Vol. 62 No. 2 (2022): March-April; 1-17RAE - Revista de Administração de Empresas; Vol. 62 Núm. 2 (2022): março-abril; 1-17RAE-Revista de Administração de Empresas; v. 62 n. 2 (2022): março-abril; 1-172178-938X0034-7590reponame:Revista de Administração de Empresasinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporenghttps://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/85103/80423https://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/85103/80424https://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/85103/80853Copyright (c) 2021 RAE-Revista de Administração de Empresasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Ianatoni Camargo, ThiagoMaranhão de Souza-Leão, André Luiz Melo Moura, Bruno 2022-09-21T17:49:50Zoai:bibliotecadigital.fgv.br:article/85103Revistahttps://rae.fgv.br/raeONGhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phprae@fgv.br||ilda.fontes@fgv.br||raeredacao@fgv.br2178-938X0034-7590opendoar:2022-09-21T17:49:50Revista de Administração de Empresas - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)false |
