In this lecture, Dr Christina Scharff (King’s College London) looks at gender and media. In the first module, we look at what gender means. After this, we look at how gender intersects with neoliberalism. Then, we explore the topic of postfeminism and neoliberal feminism. In the penultimate module, we look at digital feminism in more detail. Finally, we explore gender and work in the cultural and creative industries.
