This volume contains two Open Access chapters

Visual Misogyny is an important contribution to media and cultural and gender studies that investigates the disturbing prevalence of visual gendered hate (images that contribute to and propagate hatred of women) in digital spaces and explores the dehumanising force of the circulation of such images on social media platforms.

While misogyny itself is not a new social phenomenon, the forms of visual hate that Prieto-Blanco and Özkula consider are new and remain under-researched. Bringing together three areas that have never before been explored in one comprehensive volume - misogyny, regimes of visualities, and platform studies - chapters focus on the widespread phenomenon of visual gendered hate and expose how this is bound to the anti-gender politics that has taken hold across Europe as a result of the rise of the right.

Presenting a transnational perspective through the inclusion of cases from Spain, Zimbabwe, and the UK, Visual Misogyny maps out the technological, social, and political dimensions of visual misogyny and will be of interest to a wide range of scholars interested in contemporary politics, activism, feminist visual studies and the relationship between state repression and right-wing ideology.
