As a discipline, we know very little about the experience of women in parliaments across Asia, even though the region is home to “three-fifths of the world’s population” (1) and the world’s first female prime minister (Sirimavo Bandaranaike, Sri Lanka, 1960). In part, thismay be because—in the aggregate—women’s political presence in this region has tended to sit “in the middle” of global rankings: not high enough to warrant “best practice” accounts, yet not low enough to become a focal point of development concern. Our limited collective understanding, however, may also reflect the Euro-American focus of our discipline, which has historically set the standard of what counts as “good research.” Academics who sit and write outside these theoretical frameworks and interpretative lens have been rendered less visible. Devin K. Joshi and Christian Echle’s edited collection, Substantive Representation of Women in Asian Parliaments, therefore represents a significant contribution to our understanding of women’s experiences across 10 very diverse parliaments: Japan, South Korea and Taiwan (in East Asia); Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Timor-Leste (in Southeast Asia); and Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka (in South Asia). Mikiko Eto and Ummu Atiyah Ahmad Zakuan, writing on Japan andMalaysia, respectively, explicitly refer to their studies as the “first” on the substantive representation of women (SRW) in those countries (28, 121), although this would also be the case for a number of other chapters. The collection begins with Joshi’s description of the Asian context, defined in terms of its widespread “patriarchal bureaucratization of power,” which has accounted for “women’s formal exclusion from political institutions,” and the high number of states that can still be classified as “non-democracies, semidemocracies, and newly emerging democracies” (6). Each chapter then follows a similar structure, beginning with a discussion of political and cultural contexts, including legislative and policy efforts to advance gender equality more broadly, followed by descriptions of the individuals surveyed for the study. These are
作为一门学科,我们对亚洲各国议会中女性的经历知之甚少,尽管该地区拥有“世界五分之三的人口”(1)和世界上第一位女总理(斯里兰卡Sirimavo Bandaranaike,1960年)。在某种程度上,这可能是因为在总体上,妇女在该地区的政治地位往往在全球排名中处于“中间”:不高到足以保证“最佳实践”账户,但也不低到足以成为发展关注的焦点。然而,我们有限的集体理解也可能反映出我们学科的欧美焦点,该学科在历史上设定了什么是“好的研究”的标准。那些坐在这些理论框架和解释镜头之外写作的学者变得不那么显眼了。因此,Devin K.Joshi和Christian Echle编辑的合集《妇女在亚洲议会中的实质性代表》对我们理解10个不同议会的妇女经历做出了重大贡献:日本、韩国和台湾(东亚);印度尼西亚、马来西亚、菲律宾和东帝汶(在东南亚);孟加拉国、尼泊尔和斯里兰卡(南亚)。Mikiko Eto和Ummu Atiyah Ahmad Zakuan分别在关于日本和马来西亚的文章中明确表示,他们的研究是关于这些国家妇女实质性代表性的“第一次”研究(28121),尽管其他一些章节也是如此。该系列以乔希对亚洲背景的描述开始,根据其广泛的“父权制权力官僚化”来定义,这解释了“女性被正式排斥在政治机构之外”,以及仍有大量国家可以被归类为“非民主国家、半民主国家和新兴民主国家”(6)。然后,每一章都遵循类似的结构,首先讨论政治和文化背景,包括更广泛地促进性别平等的立法和政策努力,然后描述为研究而接受调查的个人。这些是

Abstract Women have unique experiences during natural disasters, including higher risks of death, violence, and socioeconomic decline and an increase in specific reproductive health needs. However, government responses often do not directly address these women-specific needs, which can decrease women’s political trust. I investigate women’s trust in government institutions when natural disasters have recently occurred and argue that because of their unique experiences and typical government responses, women’s political trust will decline when there is a natural disaster more than men’s. I find that when there is a high number of disasters and when a larger percentage of the population is affected by disasters, women’s political trust decreases significantly, especially institutional trust. These findings are distinct from previous studies that cluster different types of political trust and support the idea that women’s experiences in a disaster may influence their relationship with institutions differently than men’s.
妇女在自然灾害中有独特的经历,包括更高的死亡、暴力和社会经济衰退风险,以及特定生殖健康需求的增加。然而,政府的反应往往没有直接解决这些妇女的具体需求,这可能会降低妇女的政治信任。我调查了最近发生自然灾害时女性对政府机构的信任,并认为由于她们独特的经历和典型的政府反应,当发生自然灾害时,女性的政治信任会比男性下降得更多。我发现,当灾难发生的次数较多,受灾害影响的人口比例较大时,女性的政治信任显著下降,尤其是制度信任。这些发现与之前的研究不同,这些研究集中了不同类型的政治信任,并支持这样一种观点,即女性在灾难中的经历可能会影响她们与机构的关系,而不是男性。

Implementing Intersectionality in Public Policies: Key Factors in the Madrid City Council, Spain 在公共政策中实施交叉性:西班牙马德里市议会的关键因素

Abstract Although feminist scholarship has discussed intersectionality extensively, few studies have addressed its implementation in public policies. This article fills that gap with an empirical study of the obstacles and enabling factors in implementing intersectionality in the Madrid City Council. We focus on the multiple meanings, actors, and structures involved in translating policy planning into concrete measures. Through a content analysis of policy documents, interviews, focus groups, and participant observation, our qualitative study identifies five key factors that hinder the implementation of intersectionality-informed policies: the absence of a legal framework and precise guidelines; the multiple and contrasting interpretations of intersectionality; the lack of training; the compartmentalized work structure and culture; and the unavailability and misuse of data. These findings contribute to the scholarship on the implementation of intersectionality in public policies and provide empirical-based recommendations to overcome the identified obstacles.
摘要尽管女权主义学术界广泛讨论了交叉性,但很少有研究涉及其在公共政策中的实施。本文通过对马德里市议会实施交叉性的障碍和促成因素的实证研究填补了这一空白。我们关注将政策规划转化为具体措施所涉及的多重含义、参与者和结构。通过对政策文件、访谈、焦点小组和参与者观察的内容分析,我们的定性研究确定了阻碍实施跨部门知情政策的五个关键因素:缺乏法律框架和准确的指导方针;对交叉性的多种不同解释;缺乏培训;划分的工作结构和文化;以及数据的不可用和滥用。这些发现有助于研究公共政策中实施交叉性的问题,并为克服已确定的障碍提供基于经验的建议。

Masculinity and Sexuality in Populist Radical Right Leadership 民粹主义激进右翼领导中的男性气质与性取向

Abstract Research shows that masculinity and sexuality are pivotal to the leadership and success of the populist radical right (PRR). In particular, normative conceptions of masculinity, as seen in gendered nationalism, have been argued to be important to the appeal of PRR parties. However, the supply side of this dynamic remains understudied. To fill this gap, this article uses critical discourse analysis to analyze the role of masculinity and sexuality in the self-positioning and envisioned hegemonies of the most successful Dutch PRR leaders: Pim Fortuyn, Geert Wilders, and Thierry Baudet. The Dutch case is particularly insightful as it presents a diverse array of PRR parties in one country context. We found crucial similarities and differences between the discourses of these leaders. Our findings suggest that masculinity and sexuality, while constitutive at the party level, are largely negotiable or nondefining for the larger party family. These findings problematize often-made identifications of PRR politics with a one-of-a-kind conservative ideology of gender and sexuality.
摘要研究表明,男性气质和性取向对民粹主义激进右翼(PRR)的领导和成功至关重要。特别是,在性别民族主义中看到的男性气质的规范概念,被认为对PRR政党的吸引力很重要。然而,这种动态的供给侧仍然研究不足。为了填补这一空白,本文使用批判性话语分析来分析男性气质和性在荷兰最成功的PRR领导人Pim Fortuyn、Geert Wilders和Thierry Baudet的自我定位和霸权设想中的作用。荷兰的案例尤其有见地,因为它在一个国家的背景下呈现了一系列不同的PRR政党。我们发现这些领导人的话语之间有着至关重要的相似之处和差异。我们的研究结果表明,男性气质和性行为虽然在政党层面上是构成性的,但在很大程度上对更大的政党家庭来说是可协商的或不可定义的。这些发现往往使PRR政治与独一无二的性别和性保守意识形态相一致。

The Missing Fingerprints: U.S. Women Legislators and International Development Aid 失踪的指纹:美国女议员与国际发展援助

Abstract There is optimism that the growing number of women in political office will reorient the focus of international politics toward more social and humanitarian issues. One basis for this optimism is the argument that women legislators hold distinct foreign policy preferences and act on them to affect changes in policy. However, we know little about gender differences in the behavior of individual legislators on these issues. This study investigates the behavior of individual legislators of the United States, one of the most important actors in international politics, in the context of development aid. Analyzing a diverse set of legislative behaviors in the U.S. Congress, we find no evidence that women legislators behave any differently than men with regard to these issues. Beyond its contribution to our understanding of the making and future of American foreign policy, this study contributes to broader debates about women’s representation and foreign policy.
摘要人们乐观地认为,越来越多的女性担任政治职务,将使国际政治的重点转向更多的社会和人道主义问题。这种乐观主义的一个基础是,女性立法者持有不同的外交政策偏好,并根据这些偏好采取行动来影响政策的变化。然而,我们对立法者在这些问题上的行为中的性别差异知之甚少。本研究调查了美国立法者个人在发展援助背景下的行为,美国是国际政治中最重要的参与者之一。通过分析美国国会的一系列不同立法行为,我们没有发现任何证据表明女性立法者在这些问题上的行为与男性有任何不同。除了有助于我们理解美国外交政策的制定和未来之外,这项研究还有助于关于妇女代表权和外交政策的更广泛辩论。

“Women, Consider Crypto”: Gender in the Virtual Economy of Decentralized Finance “女性,考虑加密货币”:去中心化金融虚拟经济中的性别

Abstract Decentralized finance, including cryptocurrency and other blockchain-based applications, promises participants benefits such as financial freedom, security, privacy, and wealth accumulation. More recently, it has also offered the promise of participation, lowering financial barriers, and empowerment—especially to women, the poor, and those residing in the Global South. I argue that the rise of decentralized finance as an alternative development platform is explicitly gendered and calls for feminist analysis. I discuss how cryptocurrency-based approaches to development rest on foundations that are gendered, interacting with hierarchies of race/ethnicity and class. I also explore how they are part of a lineage of neoliberalism, leveraging neoliberal beliefs about entrepreneurialism, financial inclusion, and gender roles. The discussion further introduces the concept of neolibertarianism as an extension of neoliberal logics that advocates for bypassing states entirely in favor of private actors. The current analysis compares this new model of decentralized finance to similarly problematic development trends and assesses how it has—as of yet—failed to deliver on the promises of participation, lowering financial barriers, and empowerment. This analysis concludes with a call to action for feminist and critical scholars, encouraging further work on the topic.
摘要去中心化金融,包括加密货币和其他基于区块链的应用程序,向参与者承诺金融自由、安全、隐私和财富积累等好处。最近,它还承诺参与、降低财政障碍和赋权,尤其是对妇女、穷人和居住在全球南方的人。我认为,去中心化金融作为一种替代发展平台的兴起显然是性别化的,需要进行女权主义分析。我讨论了基于加密货币的开发方法如何建立在性别化的基础上,与种族/民族和阶级的等级制度相互作用。我还探讨了他们是如何成为新自由主义谱系的一部分的,利用了关于创业精神、金融包容性和性别角色的新自由主义信仰。讨论进一步引入了新自由主义的概念,新自由主义是新自由主义逻辑的延伸,主张完全绕过国家,支持私人行为者。目前的分析将这种新的去中心化金融模式与类似的有问题的发展趋势进行了比较,并评估了它迄今为止未能兑现参与、降低金融壁垒和赋权的承诺。这一分析最后呼吁女权主义和批判性学者采取行动,鼓励进一步开展这一主题的工作。

This analysis concludes with a call to action for feminist and critical scholars, encouraging further work on the topic.","PeriodicalId":47464,"journal":{"name":"Politics & Gender","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2022-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41579484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

What constraints are placed on Blackwomenpoliticians’ physical presentation in the United States, and how do Black women candidates navigate choices around their appearance? In Sister Style, Nadia E. Brown and Danielle Casarez Lemi address these questions, examining how Black women political elites make fashion, hairstyle, and beauty decisions with respect to their roles as aspiring representatives and current elected officials. The authors bring forth considerable evidence supporting their hypotheses that Black women’s appearance has political implications and that “dominant, Eurocentric, beauty standards influence the electoral chances of Black women in varied and distinct ways” (16). The book evaluates interpretive, qualitative, and quantitative evidence of how Black women voters and elites modify their appearance to be recognized in politics. This book is a must-read for scholars of gender and politics and offers a serious, well-executed, intersectional analysis of the body politics of Black women. First, Brown and Lemi use the implementation of New Jersey’s Create a Respectful and Open Workplace for Natural Hair (CROWN) Act (2019), which protects individuals against hair-based discrimination, as a case study of how and why hair texture and styling as a reflection of racial, gendered, and class identities is a novel form of discrimination that state legislatures have recently addressed. The increase in the number of Black women legislators allows for the introduction of such topics, which otherwise would be invisible for nonracialized representatives. Here, the authors point to the importance of lived experiences of Black women in influencing how they represent their communities both descriptively and substantively (19). Next, Brown and Lemi analyze in-depth interviews with Black women political elites at various levels of political office to demonstrate how these women are both agentic and constrained in their hair styling and hair texture choices.
在美国,黑人女性政治家的外表有哪些限制?黑人女性候选人如何根据自己的外表做出选择?在《时尚姐妹》一书中,纳迪亚·e·布朗和丹妮尔·卡萨雷斯·莱米探讨了这些问题,研究了黑人女性政治精英如何根据她们作为有抱负的代表和现任民选官员的角色,做出时尚、发型和美容决定。作者提出了大量的证据来支持他们的假设,即黑人女性的外表具有政治意义,并且“主导的、以欧洲为中心的审美标准以各种不同的方式影响着黑人女性的选举机会”(16)。这本书评估了黑人女性选民和精英如何修改自己的外表以在政治中得到认可的解释性、定性和定量证据。这本书是性别和政治学者的必读之作,对黑人女性的身体政治进行了严肃、严谨、交叉的分析。首先,布朗和莱米利用新泽西州《为自然头发创造一个尊重和开放的工作场所法案》(2019年)的实施情况,该法案保护个人免受基于头发的歧视,作为一个案例研究,如何以及为什么头发质地和造型作为种族、性别和阶级身份的反映是州立法机构最近解决的一种新型歧视形式。黑人女性议员人数的增加使得这些话题得以引入,否则这些话题对于非种族化的代表来说是不可见的。在这里,作者指出了黑人女性生活经历的重要性,这些经历影响了她们在描述和实质上如何代表她们的社区(19)。接下来,Brown和Lemi分析了对不同级别政治职位的黑人女性政治精英的深度访谈,以展示这些女性在发型和发质选择上是如何既具有能动性又受到限制的。
