Overview

This book attempts to bridge the gap in interdisciplinary academic knowledge by offering a critical and practical understanding of gender and sexual minority representation in media and communication. Divided into two sections, the first explores «Women, Media, and Discourse», while the second focuses on the «LGBTQIA+ Community and Media Representation». Grounded in contemporary and relevant scholarship, the book examines theories and practices across digital and social media, cinema, streaming platforms, television, newspapers, and online forums. It presents critical discourse through real-life cases, issue-based analyses, grassroots initiatives, digital campaigns, social media activism, and success stories of individuals driving social change. Featuring contributions from both eminent and emerging scholars in the social sciences, this book is a must-read for anyone seeking a nuanced, interdisciplinary perspective on media, marginality, gender, and sexual minorities.
