Abstract

Settled in the field of Feminist Media Studies Gender and Popular Culture (Milestone and Meyer, 2021) analyses the relationship between gender, media and culture. Since its first edition the book has become a major bibliographic reference amongst the English-speaking academia. After a brief book review the reader will find a Spanish translation of the seventh chapter, devoted to media consumption and use. There the authors: (1) asses, from an intersectional viewpoint, the key concepts used to study digital media (prosumer, convergence, audience, etc.); (2) enquire in the connections of media consumption and gender identity invoking etnography and discourse analysis; and (3) drawing on hashtag feminism discuss the theoretical categories with which new participation forms have been thought (collective intelligence, slacktivism, clicktivism, e-tactics and so on).
