Routledge Gender and Digital Culture - Academic Sociology Book

Explore the complex relationship between identity and technology with Gender and Digital Culture by Routledge. This academic work examines how digital technology functions as an inherently gendered and classed system. It moves beyond surface-level observations to look at the silences within everyday digital systems and how these gaps create real-world inequalities. The book examines algorithmic vulnerability through three interconnected research projects. By looking at modern digital phenomena such as sexting, selfies, and wearables, the text provides a deep look into how decision-making systems affect lived experiences. It is an essential resource for those studying how social structures are reflected and reinforced in the digital age. Whether you are researching anthropology, sociology, or the social sciences, this book offers a unique perspective on the affective and mundane ways that digital platforms shape our world. It provides a necessary framework for understanding the social implications of the technologies we use every single day.
