By critiquing the TVA's enforcement of an official historical narrative, the show invites contemplation of social critique and celebrates diversity and autonomy. Through its use of historical authenticity and anachronism, Loki offers a subversive narrative that challenges oppressive social orders and promotes inclusivity. The text also examines how science fiction in American television has historically addressed social issues and how mainstream media's use of historical bricolage challenges traditional narratives and exposes hegemonic processes. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2024 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
