Summary

• "A must-read for journalism, communication, and gender studies scholars interested in understanding how socioeconomic factors and geopolitical power relations influence discourse around violence against women in the Global South. Ammina Kothari, Professor of Journalism, Harrington School of Communication and Media, University of Rhode Island, USA This anthology makes a much-needed path-breaking contribution to an interdisciplinary understanding of woman abuse in the five regions of the most populated part of the world. Walter DeKeseredy, Anna Deane Carlson Endowed Chair of Social Sciences, West Virginia University, USA Bringing together 14 journalism
• scholars from around the world, this edited collection addresses the deficit of coverage of violence against women in the Global South by examining the role of the legacy press and social media that reporton and highlight ways to improve reporting. Authors investigate the ontological limitations which present structural and systemic challenges for journalists who report on the normalization of violence against women in country cases in Argentina; Brazil; Mexico; Indonesia; Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa; Egypt; Libya, Syria, and Yemen. Challenges include patriarchal forces; gender imbalance in newsrooms; propaganda and censorship strategies by repressive, hyper-masculine, and populist political regimes; economic and digital inequities; and civil and transnational wars.
• Presenting diverse conceptual, methodological, and empirical chapters, the collection offers a revision of existing frameworks and guidelines and aims to promote more gender-sensitive, trauma-informed, solutions-driven, and victim or survivor centered reporting in the region." --
