“…The data was treated as a set of discourses or "a corpus of statements" (Kendall & Wickham, 1999, p. 42) analysed using Foucauldian Discourse Analysis or FDA (Kendall & Wickham, 1999;Worthman & Troiano, 2016). FDA investigates: (1) the rules of production of the statements; (2) the rules that determine the borders of the sayable and the visible; (3) the rules that allow the production of new statements, and; (4) the rules that ensure a social practice is material and discursive at the same time.…”

The field of critical digital literacy studies has burgeoned in recent years as a result of the increased cultural consumption of digital media as well as the turn to the production of digital media forms. This article extends extant digital literacy studies by focusing on its subfield of digital citizenship. Proposing that digital citizenship is not another dimension or axis of citizenship, but a practice through which civic activities in the various dimensions of citizenship are conducted, this article critically considers how the concept of digital citizenship can furnish further insight into the quality of online civic participation that results in claims to and acts of citizenship. Through interdisciplinary scholarship, drawing from critical media and cultural theory, and media psychology, and deriving new empirical data from qualitative digital ethnography and quantitative focus group and survey studies, it presents original case studies with young people in Southeast Asia, including young Muslim women’s groups in Indonesia and youth public opinion on LGBTs in Singapore. It argues that Southeast Asian youth digital citizenship foregrounds civic participation as emergent acts that not only serve to make society a better place, but also enacts alternative publics that characterise new modes of civic-making in more conservative, collectivistic Southeast Asian societies.

“…I treated the research materials I gathered as a set of discourse or ‘rules, divisions and systems of a particular body of knowledge’ (Arribas-Ayllon and Walkerdine, 2008: 99). I followed Kendall and Wickham’s (1999) steps in doing the analysis in combination with Worthman and Troiano’s (2016) application of the FDA by identifying the rules that determine the production of statements, the borders of what is sayable and visible and the material and discursive practices. In this article, I focus on how the YMWGs frame the importance of entrepreneurship, the necessity of self-transformation and how they redefine the political spaces in post-authoritarian Indonesia.…”

The article discusses the indiscernibility of social-media-based young Muslim women’s groups’ (YMWGs) transformative roles in socio-political analysis, standing in contrast to the groups’ visibility in Indonesian young women’s everyday lives. How does the (in)visibility of the YMWGs reconfigure the (political) subjectivity of Muslim womanhood? How should we understand the influence of this form of ‘women’s movement’ in the re-invention of Muslim identity? This article proposes the notion of ‘social media religious influencer’ to understand the groups’ conflation of religious, political and commercial elements in their online and offline representations and their encouragement to their followers to do self-transformation. The article demonstrates how, although such creative conflation challenges prevailing ideas about young Muslim women, it requires the young women to remain and take part in the prevailing gender regime by maintaining female conformity.

“…According to the tenets of institutional ethnography outlined above, the institution of information literacy has taken a certain shape in the location where Laura is supposed to be a good student (cf. Worthman & Troiano, 2019). This shape can be explored through identifying the ruling relations underpinning it.…”
