Mapping the Ideological Landscape of Extreme Misogyny. Den Haag: International Centre for Counter-Terrorism.

The research paper provides an in-depth examination of extreme misogyny within online communities, aiming to address the gaps in understanding the distinctions between various misogynist groups. Through a multi-layered analytical framework, the study explores the rhetorical, operational, and social facets of these communities, drawing from a comprehensive literature review and an analysis of current misogynist spaces and ideological narratives. By mapping the online ecosystem of extreme misogyny, the research identifies significant differences between various misogynist communities in terms of their legitimacy to violence, conceptualization of adversaries, ideological vision's time orientation, and overall operational discourse.
