In recent years, otaku culture has emerged as one of Japan's major cultural exports and as a genuinely transnational phenomenon. This timely volume investigates how this once marginalized popular culture has come to play a major role in Japan's identity at home and abroad. In the American context, the word otaku is best translated as 'geek' - an ardent fan with highly specialized knowledge and interests. But it is associated especially with fans of specific Japan-based cultural genres, including anime, manga, and video games. Most important of all, as this collection shows, is the way otaku culture represents a newly participatory fan culture in which fans not only organize around niche interests but produce and distribute their own media content. In this collection of essays, Japanese and American scholars offer richly detailed descriptions of how this once stigmatized Japanese youth culture created its own alternative markets and cultural products such as fan fiction, comics, costumes, and remixes, becoming a major international force that can challenge the dominance of commercial media. By exploring the rich variety of otaku culture from multiple perspectives, this groundbreaking collection provides fascinating insights into the present and future of cultural production and distribution in the digital age.

社会学进路失之浅陋；很大篇幅花在介绍基本情况上，这种以人类学田野调查的方法对待“宅男”做得再良心也就是骗骗外行啊！

基本上是一些日本学者写的关于宅圈的论文收录。文字易懂好读。

整体的内容布局和主题很喜欢。个人偏爱吧

大部分是译文，日语到英语之间转换损失的信息有多少不得而知。主要的研究还都是从ethnography方面出发的，基本就是讲故事，读起来超轻松。因为缺乏来自更深更广领域的社会学科理论支持，作为一本学术类出版物还是轻薄了些，不过这也是fan studies一直被欧洲学术界所诟病的地方。有兴趣看看还是挺娱乐的。
