Özet

Kişinin üyesi olduğu toplumun diğer üyelerince de tanınması ve toplum açısından ortak bir payda oluşturmasıyla bir ikon olarak nitelendirilebilecek Barbie, özel bir şirket tavrına, ideal kadın vücudu algısına, popüler kültürün moda kraliçeliğine ve son elli yılda dünya çapında fenomen olan bir markaya işaret etmektedir. Çalışmada bu yönleriyle Barbie ekseninde “modern” ve “postmodern” üzerine bir inceleme yapılması hedeflenmiştir. Öncelikle Barbie’nin Avrupa merkezcilik ve kültürel rölativizm bağlamında geçirdiği değişim ele alınmıştır. Daha sonra sekülerizmin bir örneği olarak gösterilebilecekken, nasıl dindarlaştırıldığı ve kapitalizmin bir ürünü olma özelliğini koruyarak, globalizasyondan glokalizasyona Barbie’de nelerin değiştiği incelenmiştir. Son olarak, Barbie’nin son zamanlarda geçirdiği değişimlerin, Barbie’ye feminist bakışça getirilen eleştirileri bertaraf edip edemeyeceği değerlendirilmiştir.
