About
"Gendering Politics explores the place of women in democratic politics by means of a detailed study of women in Israeli politics who were elected to municipal councils from 1950 to 1989. Drawing from a variety of sources, including questionnaires, interviews, newspaper coverage, and existing statistical data, as well as studies of the role women play in politics in other democracies, Hanna Herzog analyzes the extent to which female candidates succeeded or failed during Israeli elections.
She then explores reasons why female participation in Israeli politics has been relatively slight, despite historical precedents and social circumstances that would indicate otherwise."--BOOK JACKET. "Gendering Politics will be of interest to students and scholars of women's, studies, Israeli studies, political sociology, and political science."--BOOK JACKET.
