New article out! 🔥

I’m excited to share our new piece on how political seniority works as a gendered informal institution that shapes access to power in parliaments.

The article draws on interviews with the French National Assembly.

Dan Banik and @mbechseeberg.bsky.social did a wonderful job in asking hard—but engaging—questions.

Our paper on gender gaps among senior politicians is out in Politics & Gender! (with @TorillStavenes)

We know that senior MPs have privileges and new MPs are disadvantaged 👉 -> seniority is a source of power. But is it gendered?

Yes! bit.ly/3ETm0Xe
