Abstract

U ovom radu se nastoji dokazati ispoljavanje političkog cinizma u humorističnim TV serijama političke tematike i kinizma u internetskim memeovima političke tematike. Nadalje, nastoji se objasniti povezanost političkog cinizma i pop kulture. U istraživanju su se koristile metode analize naracije i analize diskursa, a primijenjene su na TV serije Parks and Recreation i Yes Minister, te na internetske meme stranice Di su pare? i Ćaća se vrača. Također, cilj je bio dokazati kako se internetski memeovi političke tematike mogu smatrati novim oblikom građanskog neokinizma. Provedbom istraživanja, pronađeni su elementi političkog cinizma u navedenim TV serijama, a pronađeni su i elementi kinizma u memeovima političke tematike.
