Hello Everyone, I am delighted to announce the publication of my new book (edited collection): Women’s Activism Online and the Global Struggle for Social Change. Publisher: Palgrave-Macmillan. The book is a part of the book series: Palgrave Studies in Communication for Social Change<https://www.springer.com/series/14642>. Here is a direct link to the book: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-31621-0 This book showcases the online activism of women’s groups around the world in the post-#MeToo era, and presents an overview of the diversity of its current expressions. The focus of this book extends beyond campaigns against rape culture to include women’s struggles on other political and environmental issues, such as the campaign against the radical right-wing in Austria. Moreover, the book's chapters highlight the genuine complexity of the efforts of women activists who are not only challenging the patriarchal order within male-controlled digital platforms but are also challenging the hegemonic voices within the women's movements. The book’s case studies attest to the proliferation of digital campaigns aimed not only against discrimination of women but against discrimination based on their color, age, ethnicity, and nationality. The internet helps them to voice their agenda and strive for social change as well as to create both connective and collective identities. Table of contents 1.
