Описание: In 2017, TIME announced The Silence Breakers, individuals who set off this international movement against sexual harassment, as its Person of the Year, amplifying the #Metoo movement. The intersection of issues of gender violence and activism receives inconsistent focus from the media, policymakers and the citizens. Some rapes and sexual harassments become the focus of mainstream and social media focus, while the others are relegated to the background. To avert this inconsistency, in this book I emphasize on the interdependent association between social media networks and mainstream mass media which can strengthen anti-rape and sexual harassment activism in digitally emerging countries such as India. Across cultures and countries incidents of rape and sexual assault are similarly framed by the media, who neglect the marginalized and often partake in victim blaming. This book will help in establishing the interdependent agenda-building framework to examine media coverage of issues in the digitally emerging countries of the Global South. It will give a contextual framework to the relationship between rural subaltern anti-rape feminist activists in India and the transnational anti-rape cyberfeminism and investigate why hashtags may or may not be successful in the digitally emerging countries and identify how rape and sexual harassment incidents slip through the existing media, activism, and policy gap.
