Synopsis
THE THREAT exposes the triumvirate of vested interests - big tech, profit driven politics and historic gender inequalities - that has driven digital development away from gender equality, safety and respect. Dr Lilia Giugni highlights cases from around the world: from minority hate crime and revenge porn to female victims in the mining industries and supply chains. And she then gives us the tools both for personal safety and to create wider global change for a safer world for women and children. This book is part expose and part feminist manifesto. It builds on five years of research and activism, and follows the invisible thread that connects the suicide of a young woman in a remote corner of Southern Italy to decisions made in corporate boardrooms, presidential palaces and the world's other corridors of power. Following this thread has led me to painfully question my own online habits and my political stance on the digital revolution. Along the way, I've met with digital violence survivors and cyber psychologists, Congolese mothers and Chinese factory workers, algorithm designers and AI engineers, politicians and tech company delegates. I've also visited schools, universities, campaign organisations' premises and houses of parliaments, and I've exposed myself to much more online misogynistic content I thought I had the stomach for. From an investigation prompted by anger at specific cases, my quest turned into an arguably more complex project. What you are holding in your hand is an analysis of the tight relationship between three dominant forces of modern life: patriarchy, capitalism and technology., Patriarchy, capitalism and technology, three of the driving forces of 21st-century life, are all tightly intertwined. Threat explains why we should care and what we can do about it. Within today's patriarchal digital capitalism, communication technologies are used to oppress, control, violate and exploit women. But the internet is no parallel dimension, and digital tools do not exist in a vacuum. Rather, they are a reflection of the economic, social and political processes behind their creation, which are highly gendered and unfair to begin with. Should it come as a surprise that the digital world ended up mirroring and amplifying the sexism, misogyny, and social injustice already present in our society? The digital revolution, however, can offer unprecedented opportunities for women's liberation. This is why Threat , while clearly denouncing those who gain from the status quo and have so far failed to take action, also suggests a roadmap towards 'taking back the tech'. From digital monopoly regulation to legal personnel training, from educational interventions to feminist initiatives in tech, we can and we must achieve digital justice for women and for all.

    The book is charming -- and new condition as shown. This is a hard to find item, so glad to find it new here for a reasonable price! It arrived quickly, but was packed in a mailing envelope -- and even though it was padded, one of corner was crushed, which was disappointing as this is to be a gift. Overall postive, nonetheless.
