Shifting norms on gender and leadership: are ambitious women punished in politics?
[['eprint_typename_blog_post' not defined]]
Sparsha Saha and Ana Weeks show that while ambitious women are not penalised by voters overall, the aggregate results hide differences in taste for ambitious women across parties. They find that in the US, left-wing voters are more likely to support women with progressive ambition than right-wing ones, while in the UK parties are not as divided.
