relationships between online culture, technology and misogyny.
It asks how the internet’s anti-woman spaces and discourses have
been transformed by the technological affordances of new digital
platforms, and whether they are borne of the same types of
discontents articulated in older forms of anti-feminism, or to what
extent they might articulate a different constellation of social, cultural
and gender-political factors. This collection of work is intended to
lend focus and cohesion to a growing body of research in this area;
to map, contextualise and take stock of current frameworks, making
scholars aware of one another’s work and methodologies, and
hopefully forging new interdisciplinary collaborations and directions
for future work. Crucially, we move beyond the Anglophone world,
to include perspectives from countries which have different gender-
political and technological landscapes. In addition to mapping the
new misogyny, several contributions also address digital feminist
responses, evaluating their successes, limitations and impact on the
shape of digital gender politics in future.
