Tracing Online Misogyny

Digital hatred against women is a pressing issue that has concerned the public for years. Women are systematically attacked and disparaged online. According to a recent representative study by "Kompetenznetzwerk gegen Hass im Netz", women are among the groups most frequently affected by digital hatred. At the same time, only a few mechanisms have been developed so far to protect them. The report "Tracing Online Misogyny: An analysis of misogynistic ideologies and practices from a German-international perspective" addresses this problem by combining quantitative-computational and qualitative approaches to better capture the scope and dynamics of online misogyny.
