Research article "Feminist Institutionalism and Ethnography: Crafting Research from a Diverse Methodological Menu" by Michal Grahn & Cherry M. Miller. Abstract begins: The objective of feminist institutionalist (FI) political science is to expose institutions that perpetuate gender inequalities. The nature of these entities and the best strategies for studying them remain hotly debated topics. Some scholars identify ethnography as a valuable methodology for FI research. However, novices to this methodology might need help navigating it. In this theory-generating article, we aim to bridge the gap between different approaches to FI and ethnographic methodologies. We propose ethnographic approaches suitable for scholars who see gendered institutions as real entities that constrain and enable human practices, as well as those who perceive them as sedimented clusters of meanings.

Call for papers! 'Widening Gender Gaps? The how, why and so what of gendered democratic participation on social media' at Copenhagen Center for Social Data Science (SODAS) & Political Science, Uni of Copenhagen, 15 December 2023 9-13. Deadline: 1 November.
#Gendersky
#Polisky
Gender@SAMF call for papers and presentations Widening Gender Gaps? The how, why and so what of gendered democratic participation on social media In the midst of the growing interest in social media as an important platform for political participation, we need to investigate whether traditional gender gaps in political participation are enlarged or reduced. Some studies primarily relying on survey data show no substantial gender difference in political participation on social media, in terms of liking and commenting on political content, while others find gender gaps in likelihood of posting political content and tone of comments. However, we call for papers and presentations using social media data to further explore gender gaps in political activism. Time: 15 December 2023 9-13 Place: TBA (CSS, University of Copenhagen) Deadline for proposals for papers/presentations: 1 November 2023 to gender@ifs.ku.dk Organizers: Hjalmar Bang Carlsen (SODAS) & Karina Kosiara-Pedersen
