Mapping Research on Online Misogyny and Manosphere in Spain: The Way Ahead

This article offers a panoramic vision of the studies carried out on the Manosphere and anti-feminism in the Spanish and overarching European context. In this work, we have reviewed the most recent and relevant studies focused on understanding organized online misogyny and toxic technocultures. In addition, the incipient works on the Spanish manosphere developed in the last five years have been analyzed in order to connect European knowledge with local advances. This critical review offers a state of the art that includes: a definition of the manosphere, a defense of the importance of its study, a review of the topics covered by subject areas, a diagnosis of what remains to be done, and an ethical warning for those researchers who want to commit to the work of unraveling what the manosphere is.
