In: Springer Nature eBookSummary: “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.” Tanya Horeck, Professor, Anglia Ruskin University, UK “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 skillfully 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.” Nicole Westmarland, Professor, Durham University, UK.
