Our @cambup-polsci.cambridge.org author shared insights from her book: “The truth is, they’d always been standing in political quicksand. As @zeynsom.bsky.social describes in her book “Glass Ceilings, Glass Cliffs, and Quicksands,” female leaders often operate in more precarious environments.”

In this Elements, Jakana Thomas & I consider how women’s representation impacts the implementation of gendered peace provisions after war. With new data on peace provision implementation, we show that the representation of ex-rebel women has significant effects on implementation & therefore peace!
