This project will support a postdoctoral fellow who will work with scholars in political science and law to understand the legal significance of the intersection of race and gender. Projects to which the postdoctoral fellow will contribute all address questions of effective democratic institutions, including courts, that include all people, and are attentive to the significance of both courts and institutions that are to attend to democratic preferences. One site for analysis is New Orleans, a city particularly ripe for analysis of the significance of race and gender for governance because of its demographic and socioeconomic diversity, and changes in the city. The postdoc will be able to contribute to cross-national comparisons, as scholars work on issues in both the United States and Brazil. The significance to governing institutions of intersecting ascriptive identities has only recently been a matter for systematic empirical investigation, making this a particularly innovative project. The project will support a postdoctoral fellow and an undergraduate student, training them in empirical social sciences across multiple disciplines. The project will also have substantial broader impacts because of the importance of democratic institutions to governance, and one project's analysis of how judges are selected.

该项目将支持一名博士后研究员，他将与政治学和法学学者合作，了解种族和性别交集的法律意义。博士后研究员将参与的所有项目都涉及包括法院在内的有效民主机构的问题，这些机构包括所有人，并注意到法院和机构对民主偏好的重要性。新奥尔良是一个分析的地点，这座城市特别适合分析种族和性别对治理的重要性，因为它的人口和社会经济多样性，以及城市的变化。博士后将能够为跨国比较做出贡献，因为学者们都在研究美国和巴西的问题。交叉归属身份对管理机构的意义直到最近才是一个系统的实证调查问题，使这一项目特别具有创新性。该项目将支持一名博士后研究员和一名本科生，在多个学科的实证社会科学方面对他们进行培训。该项目还将产生更广泛的重大影响，因为民主机构对治理的重要性，以及一个项目对法官如何产生的分析。
