Abstract

"Depuis près de 50 ans, Star Trek compte des millions de fans à travers le monde. Mais cet univers de science-fiction n'est pas qu'un simple délassement. Il propose un idéal social reposant sur une organisation juridique et des règles de droit très élaborées, qui servent notamment de guide pour explorer des mondes étranges et découvrir de nouvelles civilisations dans la galaxie. Au fil des séries et des films, plusieurs dizaines d'intrigues constituent autant de cas susceptibles de donner lieu à une jurisprudence dans des domaines très variés du droit. Le capitaine Kirk peut-il ainsi déroger à la Directive première, clef de voûte légale de l'exploration spatiale, sans encourir la réprobation de Spock et les foudres de ses supérieurs ? L'androïde Data, qui sert sur l'Enterprise sous les ordres du capitaine Picard, est-il une personne ou une chose ? Le lieutenant Jadzia Dax, officier scientifique de la station Deep Space 9, peut-elle être déclarée pénalement responsable pour un crime qu'aurait commis le symbiote qu'elle porte en elle ? B'Elanna Torres, ingénieur en chef sur l'U S S. Voyager, doit-elle répondre devant un juge de simples pensées hostiles ? Du fin fond de l'espace, nos héros et nos héroïnes de Starfleet doivent affronter des situations aussi complexes qu'inédites, parfois dangereuses, et c'est bien souvent par l'application d'une règle de droit qu'ils trouvent une solution équitable et, si possible, sans violence."--Cover, page 4.

Abstract

From a decidedly inauspicious start as a low-rated television series in the 1960's that was cancelled after three seasons, Star Trek has grown to become a multi-billion-dollar industry of spin-off series, feature films and merchandise. Fueling the ever-expanding franchise are some of the most rabid and loyal fans in the universe, known affectionately as Trekkies. Perhaps no other community so typifies fandom as the devoted aficionados of the Star Trek television series, motion pictures, novels, comic books and conventions. Indeed, in many respects, Star Trek fans created modern fan culture and

Abstract

At the heart of one of the most successful transmedia franchises of all time, Star Trek, lies an initially unsuccessful 1960s television production, Star Trek: The Original Series. In Star Trek and American Television, Pearson and Messenger Davies, take their cue from the words of the program's first captain, William Shatner, in an interview with the authors: "It's a television show." In focusing on Star Trek as a television show, the authors argue that the program has to be seen in the context of the changing economic conditions of American television throughout the more than four decades of Star Trek's existence as a transmedia phenomenon that includes several films as well as the various television series. The book is organized into three sections, dealing with firstly, the context of production, the history and economics of Star Trek from the original series (1966-1969) to its final television incarnation in Enterprise (2002-2005). Secondly, it focuses on the interrelationships between different levels of production and production workers, drawing on uniquely original material, including interviews with star captains William Shatner and Sir Patrick Stewart, and with production workers ranging from set-builders to executive producers, to examine the tensions between commercial constraints and creative autonomy. These interviews were primarily carried out in Hollywood during the making of the film Nemesis (2002) and the first series of Star Trek: Enterprise. Thirdly, the authors employ textual analysis to study the narrative "storyworld" of the Star Trek television corpus and also to discuss the concept and importance of character in television drama. The book is a deft historical and critical study that is bound to appeal to television and media studies scholars, students, and Star Trek fans the world over. With a foreword by Sir Patrick Stewart, Captain Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek: The Next Generation.
