This dissertation offers a research model for feminism that addresses girls as positive categories of possibility, that revalues the status of girls as to- be subjects, and that develops a synthesis between Visual Culture, Women’s Studies, and the emerging field of Girl Studies. The analyses produced by this model are deliberately unhinged from the kind of psychological moorings that predetermine girl as a marker for woman-in-training.
