Textul de pe ultima copertă
“In this timely new edition, Karen Boyle’s lucid feminist analysis of the ‘long #MeToo moment’ provides a critical framework for challenging linear storytelling and interrogating the reductive media logics around gender-based violence. With great care and intellectual acuity, Boyle takes stock of ongoing discourses and activism around #MeToo, exploring advances but also showing how much work remains to be done.”
“This book is recommended for anyone who wants to understand the impact of #MeToo and the Me Too movement. This revised edition carefully traces and documents the journey that #MeToo has had on feminism’s quest to end sexual violence worldwide. Boyle skilfully weaves detail and academic evidence with a powerful and passionate argument. It is essential reading for people with an interest in the role of social media on shaping feminist understandings and responses to sexual violence.”
This book is a revised, updated and expanded edition of #MeToo, Weinstein and Feminism (2019). In this second edition, Boyle argues for the importance of understanding #MeToo in relation both to an on-going history of feminist activism in both the US and UK, theory and interdisciplinary research and in relation to a popular misogyny which normalises and values men’s abuse of women. She considers the consequences of #MeToo for accused men, including in relation to cancellation practices and criminal justice, drawing on examples relating to Harvey Weinstein, R. Kelly, Johnny Depp and Woody Allen among many others. Two new chapters - on the long #MeToo moment and on survivor testimony - situate #MeToo in relation to debates about popular feminism and misogyny across a range of national contexts from the 2010s onwards, and reflect on the on the implications of the continued emphasis on survivor testimony in media coverage of sexual harassment and assault.
