Klappentext

Gendering Party Politics examines the relationship between gender, institutions, and political parties through a feminist institutionalist lens, advancing new theoretical, methodological, and empirical directions for party politics scholarship. Contributors synthesize two decades of research, introduce foundational concepts and frameworks, present innovative methods and global empirical cases, and evaluate whether (and how) parties can be changed to promote gender equality. Together, these contributions highlight the wide-ranging relevance of feminist institutionalist perspectives for research on political parties, democracy, and representation.
