FROM FINANCE TO EQUALITY: THE SUBSTANTIVE REPRESENTATION OF WOMEN'S INTERESTS BY MEN AND WOMEN MPS IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS

摘要

Recent debates within the gender and politics field have reflected a shift to consider how, when, where, why and by whom the representation of women's interests occurs (Lovenduski 2008).
