Gen Z political divide

A phenomenon known as the Great Gender Divergence is showing up in multiple research studies. It concludes that men and women born after 1996, the so-called Gen Z, are politically divided along gender lines in ways that previous generations were not. This will be especially important in an election year in big democracies such as Brazil, South Africa, India and the US. Earlier this year, The World's host Marco Werman spoke with social scientist Alice Evans, senior lecturer at King's College London, about how social media may have a role in amplifying this gender divide around the world.
