Hughes, [email protected] University of Pittsburgh, USA This ‘state of the art’ contribution reviews the methods, methodologies and epistemologies employed in gender and politics scholarship over time. We discuss the orientations and approaches of early scholars of Women and Politics, who challenged the claims that political science was both gender-neutral and objective, through more recent debates in political science over methodological pluralism, transparency and replicability. We trace the broadening of the subfield, marked by greater appreciation and use of quantitative research and by greater use and tolerance of quantitative approaches. We point to obstacles and promising directions in quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods research, demonstrating the methodological pluralism of gender and politics research today. Key words methods • methodology • epistemology • gender • politics • feminist Key messages • Early scholars of Women and Politics challenged claims to gender neutrality and objectivity in political science. • Over time, the subfield has incorporated more quantitative approaches. • Today the study of gender and politics is characterized by methodological pluralism.

Existing accounts of obligation cannot parry critiques from rival theories, nor refute philosophical anarchists’ formidable attack on obligation. To move discussion of obligation forward, this dissertation offers an alternative solution to what George Klosko has called the ‘voluntarist paradox’ of liberal-democratic political obligation. While liberal ideas about the individual require that any obligation to obey be assumed through a voluntary act, individuals do not voluntarily assume obligations frequently enough to support legitimacy claims. In response to this paradox, most scholars deploy non-voluntary justifications for a general obligation to obey, while philosophical anarchists deny that such an obligation exists at all. In contrast, I argue that overcoming the voluntarist paradox requires a radically different view of the aims and scope of political obligation.

  • VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN in POLITICS in LATIN AMERICA By
    VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN POLITICS IN LATIN AMERICA By JULIANA RESTREPO SANIN A dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Political Science Written under the direction of Mona Lena Krook And approved by _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Violence against women in politics in Latin America BY JULIANA RESTREPO SANIN Dissertation Director: Mona Lena Krook In recent years, women politicians around the world have reported being victims of harassment and violence because of their work. These practices are known as violence against women in politics or VAWIP. Latin America is the region of the world where this issue has been most widely discussed. This dissertation looks at the debates in the region to understand 1) what VAWIP is and the main manifestations in the region and 2) how discussions about VAWIP have developed and evolved. To understand this phenomenon, this research used a variety of qualitative methods including interviews with activists, politicians, and state officials from several countries in the region, along with legislative debates, women’s organizations reports, news articles, and court cases. The main finding of this research is that gender microaggressions and false accusations of corruption are systematically used in Latin America to attack women politicians and undermine their work. Based on a broad conception of violence, this dissertation also analyses diverse legislative and non-legislative measures created to end VAWIP and offers a framework for evaluating the effectiveness of these measures, and their role in improving women’s representation and electoral and democratic integrity.

  • Introduction: Critical Perspectives on Gender, Politics and Violence1
    Published as: Esposito, Eleonora. (2021). “Introduction: Critical Perspectives on Gender, Politics and Violence.” Journal of Language Aggression and Conflict 9(1): 1-20. Introduction: Critical Perspectives on Gender, Politics and Violence1 Eleonora Esposito Institute for Culture and Society University of Navarra [email protected] 1. For a Discursive Approach to Gender-Based Violence Among scholars and practitioners alike, gender-based violence against political actors is increasingly recognized as a global phenomenon of interest, to be problematized and theorized vis- à-vis traditional definitions of ‘violence in politics’ or ‘violence against politicians’ (Krook and Restrepo Sanín 2019). In particular, there is a growing awareness and evidence that, as women advance into a traditionally male-oriented political arena, they are targeted with instances of violence which are distinctive for both their sheer quantity and vitriolic quality (Inter-Parliamentary Union 2018). Existing social and political perspectives on the phenomenon are characterized by different (and often competing) conceptualizations of the role played by gender in determining the forms, motives and impacts of violence against political actors (see Bardall et al. 2019 for an overview). This is partly because the very dyadic relationship between politics and violence has often proven difficult to disentangle, and partly because literature on political violence has only recently taken on a gendered focus (ibid.). Gender-based violence has been explored from a traditional perspective on political violence, showing how the phenomenon differentially affects men and women (see Davies and True 2019), as well as from perspectives more firmly grounded in gender and politics, where it 1 Eleonora Esposito’s work was generously supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions (H2020-MSCA-IF-2017 – Grant Agreement ID: 795937).

Gender is a concept developed to contest the naturalization of sexual difference in multiple arenas of struggle. Feminist theory and practice around gender seek to explain and change historical systems of sexual difference whereby ‘men’ and ‘women’ are socially constituted and positioned in relations of hierarchy and antagonism.” – Donna Haraway, Simians, Cyborgs and Women (Routledge, 1991), p.131 “Political freedom . means ‘the right to be a participator in government,’ or it means nothing.” -- Hannah Arendt “The oppression of women knows no ethnic or racial boundaries, true, but that does not mean it is identical within those boundaries.” – Audre Lorde Course Description: In this course, we will investigate the relations among gender, policy, politics, and society, with a focus on the United States (historically and in the contemporary era), but with an effort to place the US in comparative and global contexts and to gain some familiarity with other countries.

    Politics & Gender, (2020), page 1 of 29 Gender and Violence against Political Candidates: Lessons from Sri Lanka Elin Bjarnegård Uppsala University Sandra Håkansson Uppsala University Pär Zetterberg Uppsala University A nascent body of literature has highlighted the violence (broadly defined) that women sometimes face as they enter politics. Some interpretations depict this violence as primarily gender motivated: women politicians are targeted because they are women. Another interpretation is that violence in some contexts is an everyday political practice This article is based on work supported by the Swedish Research Council (grant no. 2015-03488). The authors wish to thank the International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES) and its Sri Lanka team for fantastic collaboration while conducting this study. They are also grateful to the Federation of Sri Lankan Local Government Authorities (FSLGA) for its support during the field research. Very helpful comments and suggestions were made by participants at the 2019 European Consortium for Political Research (ECPR) Joint Sessions, the 2019 European Conference on Politics and Gender (ECPG), the development studies research seminar at Uppsala University, and the gender and politics seminar at Uppsala University (UPPGAP), as well as the coeditor of Politics & Gender and three anonymous reviewers.
