Abstract

Abstract Politics is increasingly dominated by crises, from pandemics to extreme weather events. These Critical Perspectives essays analyze crises’ gendered implications by focusing on their consequences for women’s descriptive and substantive representation. Covering multiple kinds of crises, including large-scale protests, climate shocks, and war and revolution, the contributions reveal three factors shaping both the theoretical conceptualization and empirical analysis of crisis and women’s representation: (1) the type of crisis, (2) the actors influenced by the crisis, and (3) the aftermath of the crisis. Together, the contributors urge scholars to “think crisis, think gender” far beyond the supply of and demand for women leaders.

危机时期的性别和政治代表性

从流行病到极端天气事件，政治越来越受到危机的支配。这些批判视角的文章通过关注危机对女性描述性和实质性代表性的影响来分析危机的性别影响。这些贡献涵盖了多种危机，包括大规模抗议、气候冲击、战争和革命，揭示了影响危机和妇女代表性的理论概念化和实证分析的三个因素：（1）危机的类型，（2）受危机影响的行为者，以及（3）危机的后果。贡献者们共同敦促学者们“思考危机，思考性别”，远远超出对女性领导人的供给和需求。
