The April episode of the LSE IQ podcast is now out, asking: "Are we seeing a new gender equality revolution?"

Gender politics has dominated the news over the past year with issues like the UK gender pay gap and the global #MeToo and #TimesUp movements. We explore this new wave of feminism and whether or not it will bring about lasting change for women.

Helping explore this issue are: Professor Beverley Skeggs, Director of the Atlantic Fellows programme at LSE's International Inequalities Institute, Professor Jennifer Brown, Co-director of LSE's Mannheim Centre for Criminology, and Winnie Li, award-winning author, activist and PhD researcher in LSE's Department of Media and Communications.

Each episode of LSE IQ sees a range of LSE academics, and other experts, line up to give their perspective on one timely question.
