Hate speech against women systemically subordinates and silences women for being women. Focusing on the context of the cyber harassment of women as part of the broader digital speech economy, this book highlights how online communicative phenomena magnify the harms of such speech and pose challenges for legal regulation. Nevertheless, law has utility in remedying and 'speaking back' to hate speech against women and is crucial for responding to its relevant harms. In particular, the book establishes a novel and comprehensive framework for identifying, analysing, and responding to manifestations of hate speech against women in a range of settings. In doing so, it grounds itself as a crucial scholarly and contextual intervention in increasingly prevalent debates around misogyny, online communication, and democracy.
