Papers were given by a mixture of world-leading and early career scholars based in the Czech Republic, Brazil, US, the Netherlands, Canada, Germany, Sweden, Spain, and the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Across the two days, the talks included \u2018Tradwives, rage and feminism\u2019 by Sarah Banet-Weiser (University of Pennsylvania); \u2018Remediated Body and Gender: The Rise of Trans Exclusion in Self-identifying Radical Feminists in South Korea\u2019 by Woori Han (University of Exeter);\u00a0\u2018\u201cI am not a feminist\u201d: understanding the appeal of anti-feminist influencers in the wellness space\u2019 by Stephanie Baker (City St George\u2019s, University of London) and Rosalind Gill (Goldsmiths, University of London); and Jazmin Duarte Sckell (Freie Universit\u00e4t Berlin, online): \u2018Anti-feminist ideas from female influencers in Latin America\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A number of papers were given by Loughborough University staff and students, including Iliana Depounti: \u2018Media studies approach to genAI chatbots in a reactionary context: Continuities and change in female Replika users\u2019 romancing and self-help&#8217;; Elizabeth Peel: \u201c\u2019Gender Debate\u201d Discourse: Polarising, bigoted and validating\u2019; and \u2018Heteropessimism on TikTok: #BoySober and the feminised reactionary digital ecology\u2019 by Jilly Kay, co-presented with Briony Hannell (Manchester University).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panels were also chaired by Loughborough colleagues Surya Monro (Sociology), Victoria Browne (Philosophy), and from Communication and Media, Yuval Katz, Alex Maher, Jessica Robles, and Cara Xu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Across the two days, there were nearly 100 online attendees and 50 in-person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The symposium brought together scholars working on the emergent area of reactionary digital culture that is addressed to women, a topic that is currently under-theorised and yet increasingly urgent to understand. It helped to forge important new connections and develop more transnational understandings of the perplexing new political formations and alliances that are taking shape within \u2018feminised\u2019 digital culture. As such it helped to establish a potentially new field of scholarly inquiry, and ignite a new set of debates around feminism and media culture.&nbsp; A journal special issue featuring many of the papers from the symposium is set to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/crcc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/06\/Reactionary-politics-event-poster.pdf-724x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/crcc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/06\/Reactionary-politics-event-poster.pdf-724x1024.jpg 724w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/crcc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/06\/Reactionary-politics-event-poster.pdf-212x300.jpg 212w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/crcc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/06\/Reactionary-politics-event-poster.pdf-768x1086.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/crcc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/06\/Reactionary-politics-event-poster.pdf-1086x1536.jpg 1086w, https:\/\/blog.lboro.ac.uk\/crcc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/06\/Reactionary-politics-event-poster.pdf.jpg 1414w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Centre for Research in Communication hosted the international, two-day symposium \u2018Reactionary politics, women, and feminist critique\u2019 on May 21 and 22.
