Strategic discrimination and the emergence of systematic exclusion
This paper studies how individuals consider other individuals’ preferences when selecting whom to include in a group or network in the absence of any personal taste or statistical reason associated with the inclusion of a particular applicant. This type of decision emerges, for instance, when unprejudiced white landlords discriminate against black applicants because of the prejudice of existing white tenants, or when employers hire an employee-re…
Structural Advocacy Organizations and Intersectional Outcomes
By introducing the concept of “structural advocacy organizations,” this study theorizes and tests the boundary conditions within which organizations designed to protect the rights of disenfranchised groups promote structural changes at the intersection of gender and race. We test these claims on Brazil's “women's police stations,” a type of structural advocacy organization with greater female representation on staff and with specialized procedure…
Can women's performance in elections determine the engagement of adolescent girls in politics

Our results show that when voters are exposed to a female leader, the relative number of votes given to femal…
