I remember having a similar feeling when Delhi voted for Arvind Kejriwal against all odds and reading the next day coverage! I felt so renewed and hopeful in my country. Leaving for home next week, and I feel i am going to a somewhat better India.

One of the reasons I couldn’t go to epsa this year, cannot apply for another UK Visa, i am glad these issues are being discussed at the roundtable and will inform future decision making around conference venue and funding/ support for visa applications.

Very useful paper for scholars of Gender & Politics. Men respondents in the survey can act as a placebo population for many types of theory testing. I use this in my paper investigating role model effects + mechanisms. Congratulations @guadalupetunon @aeggers @AllanDafoe

My research shows how women progress from local politics to higher political levels and how India’s weak parties create incentives for them to form cross level networks to succeed in politics. (1/3)

“Weaponised fragility” creates for people of colour a mind busy negotiating at-any-moment the-balance-can-tilt existence. So what a massive unburdening it feels to see that the settled are “made” unsettled, and the scales are tilted and just even so briefly we don’t negotiate.

Indian journalists are showcasing more and more- how female politicians mobilise women using grassroots party activists- a key argument in my papers/ book and well suited to explain West Bengal 2021.

Going through this thread, and thinking about how female politicians in India are rarely credited for the work they have done in knocking doors to get women out. My research shows that female politicians use female canvassers and are very effective in boosting female turnout.

Also, the decision to stop knocking doors is one people need to grapple with and analyze. @IlhanMN and @RashidaTlaib never stopped and may very well have helped delivered a Biden Presidency bc of it
