Pedagogiek

This article focuses on the norms that govern everyday girl culture. It investigates how young girls talk about social behaviour and appearance. Based on 1.5 years of ethnographic fieldwork, it reconstructs four interpretative repertoires through which girls reflect on themselves and others: the politically correct repertoire, and the repertoires of choice, authenticity and normalcy. The article argues that identity is reflexively constructed with others based on these norms.
