Debating pornography and the notion of harm in public discourse: The case of Billie Eilish’s experiences with sexual content online
Young people’s experiences with sexual content online are a regularly featured popular topic in news media, feeding heated ongoing policy and academic debates. Concerns and calls for further regulation and youth’s self-regulation are exacerbated when celebrities and popular public figures share statements and confessions about their own sexual lives at a young age. In this article, we study the discursive conditions of media coverage and the cele…
Be confident: The discourse of 'resilience' and 'confidence' in Greece
The spread of #MeToo in Greece can be read as a feminist intervention that gives ‘voice’ to subjectivities that have experienced sexual violence or abuse, while also opening up the public debate so that (sexual) trauma becomes part of feminist critique in the country. What many Greek commentators and critics have failed to notice to this day, however, is the way in which #MeToo in Greece has been deeply connected to the broader culture of ‘resili…

Black girlhood and emerging sexual identities: Sexual citizenship and teenage girls of African descent in Athens
This paper discusses data from interviews with young girls (13-23) of African descent and is part of our larger research programme, entitled ‘AfroGreek Cultures in Athens’. In it we wish to offer an exploratory mapping of African women’s and girls’ lived experiences in Greece. Given that women of colour usually have to wrestle with derogatory assumptions and stereotypes about their character and identity, in order to preserve their true selves an…
Domesticity and the construction of intimacy: Producing the erotic body and self within 'the love nest
Following recent academic attention on the neoliebral self, in this article, we situate the construction of the sexual self and body as part of an ongoing, neoliberal 'aesthetic entrepreneurship' and argue that people draw on various material and cultural resources in order to put these entrepreneurial selves together. Drawing on 40 open-ended interviews with young Greek adults aged between 20 and 33, conducted between 2018 and 2019, we explore t…
Constructing young selves in a digital media ecology: Youth cultures, practices and identity
Sexting panic: Rethinking criminalization, privacy and consent
In Sexting panic, Hasinoff adopts a cultural studies perspective of the contemporary culture of teenage sexting and of the ways this is socially constructed as deviant and flawed. Her point of depa
Producing the porn self: An introspection of the mainstream Greek porn industry
In this article, we offer an insight into Greek mainstream porn production after contextualizing it historically, socially and culturally. Through interviews and discourse analysis, we examine how porn workers talk about themselves as professionals, as romantic persons and as self-regulated individuals, and we present the industry from the point of view of a producer. We argue that the domestic porn industry works like a closely knit community of…
Popular culture and moral panics about ‘children at risk’: Revisiting the sexualisation-of-young-girls debate
In an attempt to resist moral panics over children's media consumption, and especially girls' consumption of hyper-sexualised popular media, this paper aims to offer a more positive account of popular culture and young children's, especially girls', engagement with it. By adopting a historical approach to modern childhood and the moral panics associated with it, I argue that the consumption of entertainment media and popular culture is a leisure …
Rethinking the pornography debate in Greece: A country-specific reading of an ‘old’ argument
Given the widely circulated anxieties about the consumption of pornography and its presumed effects on adults and youngsters, as well as the intensification of moral, social and feminist campaigns to counter its spread, especially through online technologies, this article wishes to offer a country-specific contextualization of the pornography debate in Greece. Taking into account the pro-effects reading of the culture of pornography that permeate…
Bridging the Disability Divide? Young Children's and Teenager's with Disability Internet Experiences in Greece
Given the overall paucity of research on youngsters with disability, and the ways they participate in online culture, this paper wishes to unpack the norms and divisions that become enacted or undone through online technologies and the impact these may have on the everyday practices of children and teenagers with disability in Greece. Based on our interviews with 20 youngsters with physical, and/or cognitive difficulties, or deafness, and premise…

Electronic citizenship and global social movements
This paper is an attempt at a more systematic study of the impact of new social movements on participatory politics and citizenship at a European level.

The Media and the Construction of an `Imagined Community: The Role of Media Events on Greek Television
This article is part of a wider research into the role of Greek television in the articulation of national identity. Its aim is to examine and illuminate ways in which broadcast television, and in particular Greek broadcast television, constructs an `imagined community' (Anderson, 1983). Firstly, it offers a discussion of the BBC's portrayal of the British Royal Family in a consciously orchestrated attempt to build up national unity. Secondly, th…
