The Impact of Gender Quotas is a theory-building and comparative
exercise in elaborating concepts commonly used to analyze the broad
impacts of gender quotas. The book begins with the argument that
the means by which women enter politics may influence how, why and
to what extent their presence affects political representation.
Following a preface by Drude Dahlerup, one of the pioneers of
gender quota research, the editors introduce the book with a
conceptual framework for analyzing the impact of quotas, based upon
descriptive, substantive and symbolic dimensions of representation.
The book is subsequently organized into three sections, each
devoted to analyzing one of the dimensions of representation, and
each of these sections contains a chapter case study from one of
four regions of the world (Western Europe, Latin America,
Sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia). Each of the chapters follows a basic
format instituted by the editors, with the goal of facilitating
cross-case comparisons and broad theory-building. The editors
conclude the book by summarizing the main themes and implications
for future research on gender quotas.
