I am incredibly proud that my book, co-authored with Andrea Aldrich, is published. Using an original party leadership dataset from 11 parliamentary democracies, Andrea and I show that women candidates face a glass ceiling for leadership and quickly sink once elected (the quicksand theory).

We had an amazing time in ITAM in Mexico City for the 17th Empirical Study of Gender (EGEN) workshop! Our workshop brought together scholars from around the world to discuss projects on gender and power, get feedback, and build community. Look at this group of amazing scholars 🤩

Thank you to @ITAM and @egenpolisci.bsky.social for a wonderful workshop arguing about gender and political power. We won't give up studying representation, violence against women, and backlash just because there are haters!

Very psyched about this paper: PR systems tend to have more women in politics but “hidden majoritarianism” in the sub-national pipeline produces an over-representation of men.
