描述 | This book contributes to our understanding of the trajectories and?prerogatives of female political leaders in the varying context of?democratization, political institutions and cultural norms. No woman had?been elected leader of a country before 1960, but with democratic?transitions on the rise since the 1970s, the number of women in executive?office gradually became a trend of global scope. In 2015, nineteen?countries had an elected female Head of State and/or Government, a?proportionally small number that is expected to climb as more women?compete for high office, sometimes against other female candidates. This?volume compares how women executives differ in promoting gender?equality and advocating for women’s rights and interests, as well as in their?ability to negotiate gender policy agendas. Comparative and theoretical?chapters on post-transition women leaders are complemented by case?studies in eight countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America and Eastern and?Central Europe. This book will be of use to students and scholars interested?in gender studies, comparative politics, and political leadership. |
