Abstract Human experience is more visual and visualized than ever before. This has been obvious in Africa since the 1990s, when democratization, media liberalization, proliferation of small technology, and religious reform movements introduced new ways of meaning-making. Ibrahim’s ethnographic research shows how sharia implementation and cinema as cultural production in northern Nigeria are embedded within the implicit and explicit visual regime of influencing what and how people see, think, and perform. The strategic replacement of cinemas with religious or other “neutral” objects is a visual regime that shifts people’s vision or encounter from one means of cultural production to another.

伊斯兰教与视觉文化：尼日利亚的伊斯兰教法实施和电影作为视觉管理

摘要 人类体验比以往任何时候都更加直观和形象化。自 1990 年代以来，这一点在非洲很明显，当时民主化、媒体自由化、小型技术的扩散和宗教改革运动引入了新的意义建构方式。易卜拉欣的民族志研究表明，在尼日利亚北部，伊斯兰教法的实施和作为文化生产的电影如何嵌入影响人们观看、思考和表演的内容和方式的隐性和显性视觉体系中。用宗教或其他“中性”物体战略性地取代电影院是一种视觉制度，它将人们的视野或遭遇从一种文化生产方式转移到另一种方式。
