Abstract

ABSTRACT This essay serves as the introduction to the special issue that focuses squarely on the political leadership of women of color in the United States. In recent years, it is becoming increasingly common for women of color to seek and attain elected office. As these actors become more prominent in politics, then it will become increasingly difficult for scholars of American politics to ignore them. We argue that if the discipline wants to remain relevant, and if it wants to produce the best work possible, then it is imperative that scholars of all backgrounds familiarize themselves with research that centers women of color. In the spirit of intersectionality research, we see our clarion call not as coercion, but as an invitation.

这篇文章是关于美国有色人种女性政治领导的特刊的介绍。近年来，有色人种女性寻求并获得民选公职的现象越来越普遍。随着这些行动者在政治中的地位越来越突出，研究美国政治的学者将越来越难以忽视他们。我们认为，如果这门学科想要保持相关性，如果它想要产生最好的研究成果，那么所有背景的学者都必须熟悉以有色人种女性为中心的研究。本着交叉性研究的精神，我们认为我们的号召不是强迫，而是一种邀请。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Women, Politics & Policy explores women and their roles in the political process as well as key policy issues that impact women''s lives. Articles cover a range of tops about political processes from voters to leaders in interest groups and political parties, and office holders in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government (including the increasingly relevant international bodies such as the European Union and World Trade Organization). They also examine the impact of public policies on women''s lives in areas such as tax and budget issues, poverty reduction and income security, education and employment, care giving, and health and human rights — including violence, safety, and reproductive rights — among many others. This multidisciplinary, international journal presents the work of social scientists — including political scientists, sociologists, economists, and public policy specialists — who study the world through a gendered lens and uncover how gender functions in the political and policy arenas. Throughout, the journal places a special emphasis on the intersection of gender, race/ethnicity, class, and other dimensions of women''s experiences.
