A factor which has perhaps not received enough attention is women’s participation in law enforcement. In the year 2014, women comprised only 6.1% of the police force in India. This paper combines this narrative with the theory of representative bureaucracy which implies better outcomes for a section of society through increased representation in public decision-making bodies. Using state-level annual data from 2001 to 2012, I estimate the difference in effects of female and male police force on arrest outcomes for crimes against women. Results suggest that increasing women at the inspector ranks plays a significantly higher role in arrests for such crimes, compared to increasing male inspectors. I find considerable heterogeneity across different types of crimes against women and states by female literacy levels and degree of urbanization.","PeriodicalId":103942,"journal":{"name":"CJRN: Other Law Enforcement (Topic)","volume":"153 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123765499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
