Contesting Feminism and Media Culture in Contemporary Russia: From Celebrities to Anti-war Activists examines how Russian discourses on feminism have been informed by fast-evolving, cross-border, transcultural, and trans-local media flows, which have both diversified and fragmented the spectrum of feminism in the region. The book takes a multidisciplinary approch to Russian feminisms, including an examination of Russian politics and culture, the ideology of glamour, celebrity culture, and mass media, with a particular focus on online social networks - using a set of case studies involving high-profile feminist media personalities, social media influencers, and micro-celebrities appropriating feminist agenda, and online grassroot responses to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Contesting Feminism and Media Culture in Contemporary Russia: From Celebrities to Anti-war Activists will be of interest to both undergraduate and graduate students of media and communication, area, international relations, gender, and cultural studies.
