The Economics of the Manosphere

Sunday 10th November 2024
Location: Cleeres Bar and Theatre, 28 Parliament Street, Kilkenny
The rise of the ‘manosphere’—a network of online communities focused on men’s rights, traditional gender roles, and alt-right ideologies—is having a real impact on society and the economy. This session will explore how these movements are influencing everything from gender dynamics in the workplace to the political landscape. What economic forces are driving the resurgence of traditional gender roles, and how are these groups shaping public policy debates? Can the incels win? This session is a must for anyone interested in how internet culture is affecting economics and society.
