ABSTRACT In honor of bell hooks’ legacy, we engage with her Black feminist scholarship to parse out what she offers to the study of Black politics. We explore the ways hooks rebuffed compulsory calls for niceness and obligatory congeniality via respectability politics. By interrogating the politics of the Black middle class, we locate hooks’ intellectual works as a repudiation of a “politics of niceness” that seeks to maintain the violent status quo of white capitalist heteropatriarchy. We then draw out why the rejection of a politics of niceness matters within broader discussions of race, power, politics, and oppression.
为了纪念贝尔·胡克斯留下的遗产,我们通过她的黑人女权主义研究来分析她对黑人政治研究的贡献。我们探讨了胡克如何通过体面政治来拒绝对善意和强制性亲和力的强制要求。通过对黑人中产阶级政治的质疑,我们将胡克斯的思想作品定位为对“美好政治”的否定,这种政治试图维持白人资本主义异性父权制的暴力现状。然后,我们将阐述为什么在更广泛的关于种族、权力、政治和压迫的讨论中,拒绝“善意政治”很重要。

ABSTRACT It is well established that the federal judiciary has been an overwhelmingly White and male institution since its creation and continues to be so today. Even as presidents of both parties have looked to diversify their judicial nominees, this has tended to result in the appointment of White women and men of color rather than women of color. Using data on the confirmed federal district and circuit court judges from presidents Clinton through Trump, we assess how the backgrounds of women of color nominated to the federal judiciary compare with those of other appointees. The results indicate that, compared to White male judges, women of color judges accrue more types of professional experience before their appointments, are more likely to have had prior experience as a judge, and are generally nominated earlier in their careers.
摘要众所周知,联邦司法机构自成立以来一直是一个白人和男性占绝大多数的机构,并一直延续到今天。尽管两党总统都希望司法提名人多样化,但这往往导致任命白人女性和有色人种男性,而不是有色人种女性。利用从克林顿总统到特朗普总统的已确认联邦地区和巡回法院法官的数据,我们评估了被提名进入联邦司法机构的有色人种女性的背景与其他被任命者的背景相比如何。结果表明,与白人男性法官相比,有色人种女性法官在被任命前积累了更多类型的专业经验,更有可能有过法官经验,而且通常在职业生涯早期被提名。

The Community Matters: Finding the Source of the Radical Imagination of Black Women’s Political Ambition 社区事务:寻找黑人女性政治野心激进想象的根源

ABSTRACT Previous literature on women and political ambition has shown that the ambition of potential candidates is often shaped by career paths that develop the kinds of skills useful for navigating the political environment. These studies often did not include the experiences of Black women who chose to run for office. Utilizing data from interviews with Black women elected officials across the country I offer that the key to making the decision to run for office is the unique socialization process of Black women. This process is shaped by generational examples of service, familial and community nurturing that encourages striving for excellence, and a sense of obligation to do work and not just hold a title. I find that though Black women at times initially doubt their ability to be successful in politics they often overcome these doubts as a result of encouragement by peers and community members who remind them of the skills they developed from their community and political work. They are also motivated to work to meet the needs of their communities. These experiences provide further understanding of how Black women purposefully engage within their communities and develop a standing that allows for their potential success as candidates.
摘要:以往关于女性和政治野心的文献表明,潜在候选人的野心往往是由职业道路决定的,这些职业道路培养了有助于驾驭政治环境的各种技能。这些研究通常不包括选择竞选公职的黑人女性的经历。利用对全国黑人女性民选官员的采访数据,我认为做出竞选决定的关键是黑人女性独特的社会化过程。这一过程是由一代又一代的服务、家庭和社区培养的榜样塑造的,这些榜样鼓励追求卓越,以及做工作而不仅仅是拥有头衔的义务感。我发现,尽管黑人女性最初有时怀疑自己在政治上取得成功的能力,但由于同龄人和社区成员的鼓励,她们经常克服这些疑虑,提醒她们从社区和政治工作中培养出的技能。他们也有动力努力满足社区的需求。这些经历让我们进一步了解了黑人女性是如何有目的地融入自己的社区,并发展出一种地位,从而使她们作为候选人获得潜在的成功。

Doing More than Thanking Black Women: The Influence of Intersectional Solidarity on Public Support for Policies 不仅仅感谢黑人女性:跨部门团结对公众政策支持的影响

ABSTRACT There have been numerous calls to “thank” Black women for their consistent support of the Democratic Party. Vice President Kamala Harris tweeted that we need to do more than “congratulate” Black women. Harris stated, “Let’s address issues that disproportionately affect Black women.” With this in mind, understanding the formation of public opinion about issues that affect Black women is important. In service of this goal, I offer a theory and measure of a form of group consciousness called intersectional solidarity. I define intersectional solidarity as a set of political beliefs that is characterized by awareness of and distress over marginalized subgroups’ oppression. In this article I explore the influence of intersectional solidarity on policy support with a focus on policies that disproportionately affect Black women. Specifically, I examine the circumstances under which people support the Maternal CARE Act, a policy that addresses the racial disparity in maternal healthcare, as well as Equal Pay Certification which is a policy that addresses the race/gender pay gap. This article informs our expectations regarding both the barriers to but also the possibilities for support for policies that benefit marginalized subgroups like Black women. In doing so, this project provides insight into the possibilities for intersectional politics.
摘要很多人呼吁“感谢”黑人女性对民主党的一贯支持。副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯在推特上表示,我们需要做的不仅仅是“祝贺”黑人女性。哈里斯表示,“让我们解决对黑人女性影响过大的问题。”考虑到这一点,了解公众对影响黑人女性的问题的看法很重要。为了实现这一目标,我提出了一种称为交叉团结的群体意识形式的理论和衡量标准。我将交叉团结定义为一套政治信仰,其特征是对边缘化群体压迫的认识和痛苦。在这篇文章中,我探讨了跨部门团结对政策支持的影响,重点是对黑人女性影响过大的政策。具体来说,我研究了人们支持《孕产妇保健法》的情况,这是一项解决孕产妇保健中种族差异的政策,也是一项解决种族/性别薪酬差距的政策。这篇文章告诉了我们对支持有利于黑人女性等边缘化群体的政策的障碍和可能性的期望。在这样做的过程中,该项目提供了对跨部门政治可能性的深入了解。

The Impact of Gendered Policies on Women’s Voting Behavior: Evidence from the 2015 British General Election 性别政策对女性投票行为的影响:来自2015年英国大选的证据

ABSTRACT Political parties often seek to appeal to women voters through policy pledges. However, little is known about how – or whether – these policies influence women’s voting behavior. Drawing on focus groups conducted with women voters, I explore how women perceive, experience, and negotiate gendered policies in their voting behavior using the 2015 British General Election as a case study. Overall, I find that “class-based” economic policies pertaining to the sexual division of labor matter to women voters, whereas policies seeking to tackle discrimination against women (“gender status” policies) are comparatively less salient. Crucially, attitudes toward class-based policies differ by life-stage. Taken together, I argue that studies on gender and vote choice should devote greater attention to the electoral context in addition to socioeconomic factors.
政党经常通过政策承诺来吸引女性选民。然而,人们对这些政策如何或是否会影响女性的投票行为知之甚少。通过与女性选民进行的焦点小组讨论,我以2015年英国大选为例,探讨了女性在投票行为中如何感知、体验和协商性别政策。总的来说,我发现与性别分工有关的“基于阶级的”经济政策对女性选民很重要,而寻求解决对妇女歧视的政策(“性别地位”政策)相对来说不那么突出。至关重要的是,对基于阶级的政策的态度因人生阶段而异。综上所述,我认为性别和投票选择的研究除了社会经济因素外,还应该更多地关注选举背景。

Female Candidate Performance and Gender Quotas: The Case of Ecuador 女性候选人表现与性别配额:以厄瓜多尔为例

ABSTRACT Ecuador has one of the strongest electoral designs in terms of gender quotas in Latin America. However, there remains a significant gap between the number of women candidates and the number elected. To explain why a quota does not lead to an elected representation proportional to the quota we examine voter bias and elite bias in the legislative elections of 2013 and 2017. Results show gender bias toward female candidates, and not against, which is a surprising result in a country maintaining a culture of traditional gender roles on average. A breakdown of the voting patterns by gender, however, reveals that the overall voter preference for female candidates is driven entirely by stronger female same-gender voting than male same-gender voting. The lack of representation of women as frontrunners in a political party is likely to explain the gap between female candidates and elected members to the National Assembly. Elite bias against women, not voter bias, explains women’s electoral fortunes in Ecuador.
摘要:就性别配额而言,厄瓜多尔是拉丁美洲最强大的选举设计之一。然而,女性候选人的人数与当选人数之间仍然存在很大差距。为了解释为什么配额不会导致与配额成比例的民选代表,我们研究了2013年和2017年立法选举中的选民偏见和精英偏见。结果显示,女性候选人有性别偏见,而不是反对,这在一个平均保持传统性别角色文化的国家是一个令人惊讶的结果。然而,按性别划分的投票模式表明,选民对女性候选人的总体偏好完全是由女性同性投票比男性同性投票更强所驱动的。女性在政党中缺乏代表性,这可能解释了女性候选人与国民议会民选议员之间的差距。精英对女性的偏见,而不是选民的偏见,解释了厄瓜多尔女性的选举命运。

Guy-Guessing Democracy: Gender and Item Non-Response Bias in Evaluations of Democratic Institutions 猜测民主:民主制度评价中的性别与项目无反应偏差

ABSTRACT Research on democratic attitudes has recently turned to examine citizens’ views about the performance of specific democratic institutions in their country. Drawing on data from the European Social Survey (ESS6) and the Bright Line Watch Project (BLW) in the United States, this article argues that such evaluative questions carry high levels of cognitive complexity that lead to gender gaps in item response rates. We then show that those gender gaps are present at every level of political knowledge and tend to be wider the less respondents know about the political system. Since women also tend to be more critical of democratic institutions, these results indicate that item non-response biases can make researchers underestimate overall levels of dissatisfaction with democracy, as well as overlook specific groups that may be particularly dissatisfied with the performance of certain parts of the democratic system.
最近,关于民主态度的研究转向了调查公民对本国特定民主机构表现的看法。根据欧洲社会调查(ESS6)和美国Bright Line Watch Project (BLW)的数据,本文认为,这种评估性问题具有高度的认知复杂性,导致了项目答复率的性别差异。然后我们表明,这些性别差距存在于政治知识的各个层面,而且受访者对政治制度的了解越少,这种差距就越大。由于女性也更倾向于批评民主制度,这些结果表明,项目无反应偏见可能使研究人员低估了对民主的总体不满程度,同时忽视了可能对民主制度某些部分的表现特别不满的特定群体。

ABSTRACT Little is known about the presence of women’s donor groups in state legislative elections. This work investigates their role in both primary and general election contests. As an exploratory analysis, it utilizes elite interviews to probe new questions about gender and campaign finance. Women’s donor groups are not solely a congressional election phenomenon. They are active in state legislative races, provide resources other than money, and impact the perceptions of female candidates. This study offers insights to practitioners and scholars concerned with women’s representation. For practitioners, it highlights opportunities for strategic behavior to maximize the impact of women’s donor groups of all political affiliations. For scholars, it suggests new pathways for research on Republican women’s groups specifically as well as the impact of these organizations in general, especially during primary elections and regarding candidates of color.
摘要:人们对妇女捐赠团体参与州立法选举的情况知之甚少。这项工作调查了他们在初选和大选中的作用。作为一种探索性分析,它利用精英访谈来探讨有关性别和竞选资金的新问题。妇女捐赠团体不仅仅是国会选举中的现象。她们积极参与州立法竞选,提供资金以外的资源,并影响女性候选人的看法。这项研究为关注女性代表性的从业者和学者提供了见解。对于从业者来说,它强调了战略行为的机会,以最大限度地发挥所有政治派别的妇女捐助团体的影响。对于学者来说,它为研究共和党妇女团体以及这些组织的总体影响提供了新的途径,尤其是在初选期间和有色人种候选人方面。

Vive la Différence? Is There a Gender Gap in Campaign Strategy and Spending, and Does It Matter? 差异万岁?竞选策略和支出中是否存在性别差距,这重要吗?

ABSTRACT Record numbers of women were elected into office in the US in recent years, and campaign financing may have contributed to their successes. This raises two questions: Is there a gender gap in campaign strategy and spending? And if there is, does it have an impact on election outcomes? Using a new dataset that includes itemized campaign expenditures for the almost 3,500 candidates who contested a House election between 2012 and 2020, we report little evidence of a gender gap in candidates’ campaign spending, but we find some differences in the effects of communications spending on women’s and men’s electoral performances. Female challengers, in particular, must spend more to achieve the same results as men. The findings provide yet another indicator that congressional elections are an uneven playing field, and women must work harder than men to get elected. The results have implications for elections, representation, and public policy.
摘要近年来,美国当选的女性人数创下历史新高,竞选资金可能为她们的成功做出了贡献。这引发了两个问题:在竞选策略和支出方面是否存在性别差距?如果有的话,它会对选举结果产生影响吗?使用一个新的数据集,包括2012年至2020年间参加众议院选举的近3500名候选人的逐项竞选支出,我们几乎没有报告候选人竞选支出存在性别差距的证据,但我们发现沟通支出对女性和男性选举表现的影响存在一些差异。尤其是女性挑战者,必须花更多的钱才能取得与男性相同的成绩。调查结果提供了另一个指标,表明国会选举是一个不均衡的竞争环境,女性必须比男性更努力才能当选。选举结果对选举、代表权和公共政策都有影响。

Using a new dataset that includes itemized campaign expenditures for the almost 3,500 candidates who contested a House election between 2012 and 2020, we report little evidence of a gender gap in candidates’ campaign spending, but we find some differences in the effects of communications spending on women’s and men’s electoral performances. Female challengers, in particular, must spend more to achieve the same results as men.

ABSTRACT This study uses an intersectional lens to study the structure of presidential evaluations among white men and white women. I argue that due to their distinct positions of power in American politics via the intersection of race and gender, different processes, wrapped into white heteropatriarchy, explain white men and women’s 2018 favorable mid-term evaluations of President Donald Trump. Using a sample from the 2018 CCES, I find that although there is some overlap in the factors that explain positive evaluations of Trump anti-Blackness, gender identity, and Republican partisanship structured white men’s favorable evaluations of Trump, while sexism, anti-immigration sentiment, and ideology structured white women’s favorable evaluations. The variable with the strongest association with evaluations of Trump for men was negative assessments of the economy, and the variable with the strongest association with evaluations of Trump for women was anti-immigration sentiment.
摘要本研究采用交叉视角研究了白人男性和白人女性对总统的评价结构。我认为,由于他们通过种族和性别的交叉在美国政治中的不同权力地位,不同的过程被包裹在白人异父权制中,这解释了白人男性和女性2018年对唐纳德·特朗普总统的中期评价。使用2018年CCES的样本,我发现,尽管解释对特朗普反黑人、性别认同和共和党党派偏见的积极评价的因素有一些重叠,但白人男性对特朗普的好感度是由性别歧视、反移民情绪和意识形态构成的,白人女性对特朗普的好评度是由意识形态构成的。与特朗普对男性的评价最相关的变量是对经济的负面评价,与特朗普对女性的评价最关联的变量是反移民情绪。
