A review of women, power, and rape culture: The politics and policy of under-representation

In “Women, power and rape culture: The politics of policy and underrepresentation”, authors Bonnie Stabile and Aubrey Leigh Grant provide a rich overview and detailed research surrounding the reality and politics of harassment, sexual assault, and rape within Legislative, Judicial, and Executive branches, and the avenue to those branches our college campuses during former President Trump’s term. The authors’ unique ability to connect the ways in which these powerful institutions create and exacerbate structural impediment to women’s full participation in places of power provides a much-needed addition to the national conversation about how we can, and should, do better in terms of gender equity and full inclusion in places of power.
