Recenzje

Through her careful interviewing of victims of digital harassment and sophisticated intertwining of public sphere and feminist theory, Sobieraj's sobering intervention details how digital misogyny is a systemic problem with longstanding implications for women's participation in democracy, with offline inequities reinforced online, often as deliberate, coordinated efforts that aim to objectify, degrade, and silence women.
