Around the world, antidemocratic forces are taking aim at women leaders. Misogynistic authoritarianism has entered the mainstream, seeking to reverse decades of progress. Weaponized digital technologies have unleashed sexualized smears and violent threats. There is a deep connection between attacks on women and attacks on democracy--and female leaders can show us how to fight back.
Linda Robinson--an award-winning journalist and foreign policy expert--tells the powerful stories of the women on the frontlines of the battle between democracy and authoritarianism. Despite age-old obstacles and virulent new dangers, these remarkable leaders have strengthened their countries, expanded gender equality, and promoted policies that benefit all. Tsai Ing-wen crafted a strategy to defend Taiwan from Chinese aggression while advancing social reforms. Estonia's Kaja Kallas and Moldova's Maia Sandu fought Russian hybrid warfare by pursuing European integration. Balkan leaders Vjosa Osmani and Natasa Pirc Musar bolstered their democracies against Serbian and Russian destabilization. Mia Amor Mottley of Barbados became a global champion for climate justice, rising above sexist attacks to achieve international financial reforms. Robinson distills the hard-won lessons of these and other recent leaders--including New Zealand's Jacinda Ardern, Finland's Sanna Marin, and Sigrid Kaag of the Netherlands--providing a roadmap for countries facing existential threats. Timely and vivid, this book spotlights women's leadership amid the global crisis of democracy.Kundinnen und Kunden meinen
