Renegotiating Masculinities in European Digital Spheres

This book explores, from a feminist and intersectional perspective, how masculinities have been (re)negotiated in today’s European digital sphere. By considering new gender-based European trends and scenarios – for example, #metoo, gender ideology, and cultural backlash – the book addresses masculinities in a time of social, political, economic, and cultural transformations in Europe. Bringing together research focused on online media representations of what it means to be and behave “like a man” in today’s Europe, and the way audiences have reacted to those representations, the analysis contributes to a comprehensive reflection on the stereotypes that underlie discourses in online media and how audiences co-opt, confront, criticize, renegotiate, and seek to promote gender alternatives that challenge gender (in)equity. This timely volume will be of interest to all scholars and students of media studies, digital and new media, gender and masculinity, feminism, digital cultures, critical cultural studies, European cultural studies, and sociology.

Justiça e comunicação: o diálogo (im)possível

A porosidade crescente das fronteiras entre os campos da Justiça e dos media pode ser pensada por referência às exigências do tempo presente. Dificilmente as sociedades contemporâneas se compadecem com uma visão da Justiça fechada sobre si mesma e sobre a estrita racionalidade que orienta a sua administração, exigindo pelo contrário um crescente escrutínio das decisões judiciais. A Justiça vê-se, por conseguinte, forçada a adotar práticas discursivas de maior transparência e clareza, de modo a poder explicar-se perante o público e os media. Trata-se, simultaneamente, de sociedades que carecem de uma estrutura de mediação da realidade social e da formação da opinião com...

Género, violência e ódio online

O livro Género, violência e ódio online: conceitos e representações mapeia um conjunto de conceitos e apresenta uma série de estudos qualitativos contextualmente situados na pandemia de Covid-19, colocando a descoberto as relações intrincadas entre as práticas de comunicação online e as experiências de abuso vividas em diferentes tipos de plataformas digitais. Sem deixar de identificar o potencial das tecnologias digitais na superação do sexismo e da violência estrutural sobre as mulheres, o volume explora evidências do ódio digital e dos comportamentos ofensivos perpetrados em ambiente online, envolvendo a imposição intencional de sofrimento substancial e perpetuando as desigualdades de género. Além de fazer avançar o conhecimento sobre uma problemática ainda pouco estudada em Portugal, o livro oferece importantes contributos para que a investigação académica seja um espaço abrangente de luta pela realização da justiça.
