The production of subjectivities and political formation in the self-help of the Brazilian manosphere.
One of the main literary genres produced and consumed in the world is advice literature, more specifically self-help books. In Brazil, masculinist movements are part of the far-right support base and have shown themselves to be politically active in attracting young men to strengthen reactionary bases that helped sustain Bolsonarism. This seminar aims to present how this self-help literature constructs resentful subjectivities, offers a worldview and support networks for atomized boys, and appropriates the systemic helplessness of neoliberalism, transforming them into anti-feminist (and often authoritarian) political practices.
