Women and Comparative Politics

How much political power do women have around the world? This course explores the question of women's access to political power in a comparative context with Canada. In the course we will consider questions of representation and gender equality in both formal (i.e., political parties, legislatures, electoral systems) and informal (social movements, family) settings where politics occurs. Complicating factors such as race, religion, immigrant status, Aboriginal status, and sexual orientation will also be considered. (Comparative)
