            Abstract
            Chick lit has steadily been changing since its beginnings, crossing gender and genre lines as well as cultural, geographical, and linguistic boundaries. The genre’s global popularity paved its way into research and the media primarily as a kind of genre transfer from the white Western ‘centers’ (in most cases the US and the UK) to the ‘peripheries’. Through selected case studies of supposedly ‘peripheral’ chick lit from Asia (Indonesia, China, the Arab world (primarily Saudi Arabia)), and Africa (primarily South Africa, Kenya, and Nigeria), Sandra Folie examines the marginalization and homogenization of contemporary popular literature by women through gendered as well as ethnicized labeling practices and corresponding marketing strategies.
             
            Chick lit hat seit ihrer Entstehung Mitte der 1990er Jahre kulturelle, geographische und sprachliche Grenzen überschritten. Ihre globale Popularität wurde lange als Transfer von den weißen westlichen „Zentren“ in die „Peripherien“ beschrieben, vom originären anglo-amerikanischen Genre zu adaptierten, ethnischen Subgenres. Sandra Folie zeigt anhand von Fallbeispielen vermeintlich peripherer ethnic chick lit aus Asien (Indonesien, China, arabische Welt (insbes. Saudi Arabien)) und Afrika (insbes. Südafrika, Kenia und Nigeria), wie sexistische und ethnisierende Labeling- und Vermarktungsstrategien international erfolgreiche Gegenwartsliteratur von Frauen* abwerten und vereinheitlichen.
