There is a tendency to discuss the terroristic threat after 9/11 as either a faraway enemy to be hunted down by military force or, on the other hand, as a ubiquitous, intangible threat that required constant alertness at home. The missing link between these two is the sleeper agent – the foreign enemy hiding among US citizens. By analyzing popular television shows, several US comic books, and a broad variety of Hollywood films that depict sleeper agents direct or allegorically, this book explores how a shift in perspective—from terrorist to sleeper agent—brings new insights into our understanding of post-9/11 representations of terrorism. The book’s interdisciplinary focus between media studies, cultural studies, and American studies, suggests that it will find an audience in a variety of fields, including historical research, narratology, popular culture, as well asmedia and terrorism studies. | | 出版日期 | Book 2022 | | 关键词 | Post 9/11 media; American cinema; Comics studies; Science fiction television; Terrorism in the media; War | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-11516-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-11518-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-11516-5 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
