在世界范围内，妇女在获得民选公职方面取得了令人印象深刻的进展，这一发展导致了两个不同的研究议程。第一篇调查了影响妇女参与选举政治的因素，第二篇探讨了妇女的存在是否会产生影响，特别是在促进妇女权利方面。本章结合了历史制度主义（HI）和女性主义政治学（FPS）的主要贡献，以展示“性别制度主义”方法如何填补现有文献中的空白。本章分为三个部分。第一部分对现有关于妇女实质性代表权的文献进行了批判性概述，强调了我们在女性立法者是否、为什么以及如何“为”女性“行动”方面的一些知识差距。第二部分概述了HI和FPS解决这些差距的共同特性。第三部分将“性别制度主义” （GI）框架应用于阿根廷和智利的对比案例，展示了正式和非正式机构如何以影响女性立法者行动的方式构建立法程序，以及妇女行动成功或失败的可能性。
Women have made impressive gains worldwide in terms of their access to elected office, a development that has led to two distinct research agendas. The first investigates the factors that shape women’s participation in electoral politics and the second explores whether women’s presence makes a difference, particularly in terms of advancing women’s rights. This chapter combines the main contributions of historical institutionalism (HI) and feminist political science (FPS) to show how a ‘gendered institutionalist’ approach fills in the lacunae in the existing literature. The chapter is divided into three sections. The first provides a critical overview of the existing literature on women’s substantive representation, highlighting some of the gaps in our knowledge about whether, why, and how female legislators ‘act for’ women. The second section outlines the features shared by HI and FPS that address these gaps. The third section applies a ‘gendered institutionalist’ (GI) framework to the contrasting cases of Argentina and Chile, showing how formal and informal institutions structure the legislative process in ways that influence the actions of female legislators and the likelihood that women’s actions will succeed or fail.
