Women in U.S. Politics

Semester: 

Spring

Offered: 

2013

Do American women and men differ in their political opinions and behavior?  Do women lead differently than their male counterparts as legislators, executives, and judges?  Given that women vote at a rate equal or higher than men, why do they continue to be underrepresented as officeholders? This seminar will explore the role of women in current U.S. political processes and institutions.
