Abstract

Netflix’s reboot series Cobra Kai (2018–present) depicts an intergenerational negotiation of masculinities as the men from the original Karate Kid mentor Gen Z students. Reagan-era masculine norms and measures of manhood are tested by the teens as they face twenty-first-century challenges. Static performances of masculinity fail to meet the demands of new situations; thus, the mentors and the teens alike seek flexibility instead of a winner-takes-all approach.

成功的衡量标准：《Cobra Kai》中的男性气质竞争

摘要

Netflix 的重启剧集《Cobra Kai》 （2018 年至今）描绘了来自《空手道小子》原版导师 Z 世代学生中的男子气概的代际谈判。里根时代的男性规范和男子气概的衡量标准在青少年面临二十一世纪的挑战时受到考验。静态的男性气质表现不能满足新形势的要求；因此，导师和青少年都寻求灵活性，而不是赢家通吃的方法。
