    Open AccessAmy G Mazur, Amy Mazur et al.ARTICLEPolitics & Gender2016References: 10

    Clear conceptualization should be at the core of every comparative study. Gender scholars have a long history of challenging the public/private divide in conventional notions of the political and laying bare the gendered or androcentric character of established concepts such as welfare states (Sainsbury 2008), war (Goldstein 2001), work (Spierings 2015), or democracy (Paxton 2008; Walby 2009). This criticism often focuses on descriptive and norma…

They may be established by formal statute, executive decree, or bureaucratic rules, or there may be …

  • Politics, Gender, and Concepts

    Open AccessAmy Mazur, Gary Goertz et al.BOOKPolitics, Gender, and Concepts2008

    A critique of concepts has been central to feminist scholarship since its inception. However, while gender scholars have identified the analytical gaps in existing social science concepts, few have systematically mapped out a gendered approach to issues in political analysis and theory development. This volume addresses this important gap in the literature by exploring the methodology of concept construction and critique, which is a crucial step …

  • Feminist comparative policy

    Open AccessAmy G Mazur, Amy MazurARTICLEEuropean Journal of Political…1999Cited by: 1References: 58

    This article presents feminist comparative policy (FCP) as a new field of study. It argues that FCP scholars have successfully developed a distinct approach to doing political research and a significant scientific community which follows this approach. In doing so, FCP scholars, particularly since the early 1990s, have moved this area of study into a new stage of institutionalization and influence. These achievements are documented in a discussio…
