Abstract

This work focuses on The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina series, a Netflix production oriented to a teenage audience that is an usual market niche of that service. Using Content Analysis from an intersectional and antiesencialist perspective, the impact of various domains and the relations in which it are developed over the identity construction of the characters that could be object of identification by the audience is studied. The results of this analysis show the nuclear role of community and sorority against the structural and hegemonic domain over the sexual category ‘woman’ and the disciplinary and interpersonal domain over the genre category ‘trans’. The postfeminist depoliticization of this fiction makes the intersectional political articulation claim necessary, a claim that we can find in other products as American Horror Story.
