尽管在跨国研究中,包括在 2016 年美国总统选举中,性别与对民粹主义事业的支持之间存在关系,但在对英国退欧支持的分析中,性别的作用一直缺失,很可能是因为女性和男性在投票脱欧或留欧方面没有表现出平均总体水平差异。这忽略了英国投票脱欧的一个重要解释。我们展示了基于性别的怨恨如何通过男性之间对男性的歧视观念推动欧盟公投中的脱欧投票。使用新颖的调查措施,我们证明了(i)与对女性的歧视相比,对男性的歧视看法的独特性; (ii) 男性受到歧视的观念的社会学根源; (iii) 这些看法在英国脱欧支持中的作用。我们的研究结果表明,英国脱欧公投提供了一个表达更广泛的社会不满的机会,而迄今为止,这种不满已经被认为是相关的。因此,这篇论文为理解英国公投脱欧背后的文化抵制做出了新颖的贡献,并通过这样做,洞察了在性别没有明显引发的选举中基于性别的抵制影响的可能性,这与 2016 年美国总统选举中性别是主要政治焦点不同。
Despite a relationship between gender and support for populist causes in cross-national research, including in the 2016 US Presidential election, the role of gender has been missing in analysis of support for Brexit, most likely because women and men showed no average aggregate-level differences in voting Leave or Remain. This misses an important explanation for Britain’s vote to leave the European Union. We demonstrate how gender-based resentment motivated Leave votes in the EU referendum through perceptions of discrimination against men, among men. Using novel survey measures, we demonstrate (i) the distinct nature of perceptions of discrimination towards men in comparison with discrimination towards women; (ii) the sociological sources of perceptions that men are discriminated against; and (iii) the role of these perceptions in Brexit support. Our findings reveal that the Brexit referendum provided an opportunity to express broader social grievances than have, to date, been identified as relevant. The paper therefore offers a novel contribution to understanding the cultural backlash behind Britain’s vote to leave the EU, and by so doing, insight into the potential for gender-based backlash effects in elections where gender isn’t significantly primed, unlike the 2016 US presidential election where gender was a major political focus.
