Katherine Williams

Elizabeth Pearson, a Senior Lecturer in Criminology, and Katherine Williams, a Postdoctoral researcher, dive deep into the often-overlooked intersection of gender and radicalization. They explore how misogyny influences extremist ideologies across the political spectrum. Pearson sheds light on her research into British extremist groups, while Williams challenges the stereotype that women are disconnected from far-right movements. Their discussion reveals the complex roles women play in these ideologies, highlighting empowerment amidst oppression and the surprising dynamics within radical spheres.
