Description

Book Synopsis
How do political actors in the Pacific islands region make sense of the success (or failure) of parliamentary gender quota campaigns? To answer the question, Kerryn Baker explores the workings of four campaigns in the region.

Trade Review
Kerryn Baker provides a thoughtful and detailed analysis of the complex underlying circumstances of each of these campaigns [Samoa, Papua New Guinea, and the Autonomous Region of Bougainville]. . . . She identifies and explores a number of overlapping themes that emerged in the four campaigns, as well as arguments that justified or disputed the need for special measures for women’s inclusion in parliament.
