Party Institutionalization and Women's Representation in Democratic Brazil

Beschreibung

Explains how weak, male-dominant parties interact to marginalize women and Afro-descendants in Brazilian politics. This book demonstrates that party organizational strength (institutionalization) and the inclusion of women in party leadership can improve the electoral prospects of female legislative candidates and enhance democratic accountability and representativeness.
