摘要

目标在美国最高法院的口头辩论中,女性律师在某些情况下比男性律师更容易被打断。这使得女性难以有效地构建叙述并对判例法产生实质性影响。虽然现有研究将性别概念化为二元对立,但我借鉴了近期强调性别是表演性的研究,将性别去本质化,并探讨了律师在一系列情境中对性别规范的遵守情况以及对男性和女性行为的微妙期望如何预测口头辩论中的中断情况。方法通过对 2004 年至 2019 年所有口头辩论的定量文本分析(其中一名律师代表申请人,一名律师代表被告),我研究了遵守性别规范在多大程度上预测了口头辩论的中断。因此,男性律师成功的辩论并不一定是女性律师成功的辩论,反之亦然。结论我的研究结果强调,女性律师的成功并非理所当然;律师的成功是由律师遵守性别规范所驱动的。这项研究还提出了一些规范性问题,我鼓励未来的学者对其进行探讨。

Since you put it that way… Gender norms and interruptions at Supreme Court oral arguments
ObjectiveAt U.S. Supreme Court oral arguments, female attorneys are more likely to be interrupted than their male counterparts under some conditions. This makes it difficult for women to effectively construct a narrative and substantively impact case law. While existing work conceptualizes gender as a binary, I draw on recent work stressing gender is performative to deesentialize gender and explore how attorneys’ compliance with gender norms and subtle expectations about men's and women's behavior in a host of contexts, predicts interruptions at oral arguments.MethodsVia quantitative textual analysis of all oral arguments from 2004 to 2019 where one attorney argues for the petitioner and one for the respondent, I examine the extent to which gender norm compliance predicts interruptions.ResultsI find both male and female attorneys are interrupted more frequently when their oral arguments are not gender normative. Thus, an argument that is successful for a male attorney is not necessarily successful for a female attorney, and vice versa.ConclusionMy results underscore female attorneys are not less successful as a matter of course; attorney success is driven by attorney compliance with gender norms. This work also raises a number of normative questions I encourage future scholars to explore.
