Why are women so unrepresented
Today, women represent about 25% of all legislators while this share increase over time and change a lot depending the [[État|countries]] :
- Rwanda, Cuba, Bolivia (more than 50%)
- Mexico, Sweden, Namibia (around 50%)
- World average (24-25%)
**They are no part of the world that is systematically better in terms of women representation**
Why is it like that ?
While almost all [[État|countries]] allow women to vote, it still create a disasymetry between men and women in representation
Some minority of voters are reluctant to vote for women. They think women does not make as good leaders as men. But this share of the population decrease over time
Prevalence of *sexist [[stéréotype|stereotypes]]*[^1] that often hurt women and sometimes men. Women are perceived as compassive whereas men are perceived as more agressive. Women -> welfare, health and [[culture]]
Wen -> economy and foreign affairs
But this shouldn't disadvantage however if we ask voters about what they value the most, they are going to choose economy over [[culture]]
Voter prefer [[rationalité]] over [[passion]]
[[Biased media coverage over women]] :
Women also have lower funding opportunities
Big deal in places where funding plays a really important role such as the US
[[women are less nominated as candidates by partys]]
We can also focus on the behavior of women themselves :
[[political ambition gap]]
[[gender gap competence]]
-> but when they run for an election, they tend to win
Top political offices women
"Former president of Liberia. First elected president on the African continent"
Women represent less than 10% of top political leaders.
- most of them are elected in dual system and they tend to occupy the weakest of the two
- Female political leaders tend to have dynastic ties[^2]. ex : Indira Gandhi. They tend to be either the daughter or the widow. It gives them a pre-existing network
- they rule under [[instabilité politique|political instability]] in general because if that doesn't work, they can be jumped out
ex : [[Élisabeth Borne]]
