Description
Pink-Pilled explores the often-overlooked role of women in far-right movements, examining how women are recruited, radicalized, and mobilized within extremist communities. Through investigative research and compelling case studies, Lois Shearing reveals the complex motivations and ideologies that draw women to the far right, challenging common assumptions about who participates in these movements. The book delves into the specific tactics used to target women online and offline, the gendered dimensions of extremist rhetoric, and the ways women contribute to and shape far-right activism. Shearing's work provides crucial insights into a critical gap in extremism studies, offering readers a nuanced understanding of how gender intersects with radicalization and political extremism. This timely and important examination sheds light on a phenomenon that demands greater attention from researchers, policymakers, and society at large.
