“…For Brazil, our results are similar to those of Candido et al (2019), who report that, in 2017, 33% of the faculty in political science masters and doctoral programs throughout the country were women, a figure close to the one in our sample of 35%. For Brazilian journals, our data correspond with the figures reported by Mendes and Figueira (2019) concerning the percentages of female editors – 50% in 2017 and in 2022 – and of female editorial board members – 24% in 2017 and 28% in 2022.…”

This paper maps the gender balance in the discipline of political science in Latin America by examining data from 16 countries where we could find the number of female professors in political science departments (over 100 departments) as well as from 69 journals publishing political science research in Latin America and from 16 Latin Americanist journals in Canada, the United States, and Europe. We compare the proportion of female political science faculty members to the proportion of women serving as editors and as members of editorial and advisory committees for relevant academic journals. We find that a significant gender gap remains, both in political science departments and in journals, and that the gender gap is worse in journals based in Latin America than in those based outside the region.

“…Mientras en Europa y Estados Unidos la movilización de mujeres ha hecho que se tome conciencia de las implicancias negativas de la ausencia de mujeres en puestos de decisión en la ciencia y se hayan elaborado informes que dan cuenta tanto del estado de situación como de los avances (Mauleón et al, 2013;Palmer, Assendelft y Stegmaier, 2020), en América Latina aún son escasos estos estudios (entre las excepciones figuran Rocha, 2016;Mendes y Figueira, 2019;Rangel, Feres y Campos, 2019;Biroli et al, 2020). Particularmente exiguos son los estudios vinculados a la presencia de mujeres en los puestos de liderazgo y consejos editoriales.…”

Los estudios recientes dedicados a la ciencia política latinoamericana han tenido por principal objeto de investigación la institucionalización de la disciplina. Se ha avanzado mucho en el conocimiento de este tema, pero sin apenas incluir la perspectiva de género. Para incluirla, este artículo (1) estima la presencia de profesoras de ciencia política en 107 departamentos de 16 países de la región y (2) en los equipos y (3) consejos editoriales de 85 revistas de ciencia política o latinoamericanistas para luego (4) evaluar una encuesta de editores en 48 de estas revistas. Encontramos que hay una brecha de género significativa tanto en los departamentos como en las revistas (especialmente en los consejos editoriales), que no correlaciona con la institucionalización de la ciencia política. Además, la presencia levemente mayor en los equipos editoriales representa un arma de doble filo. La llegada de mujeres a estos equipos es una oportunidad para su reconocimiento profesional y para influenciar la disciplina, pero requiere trabajar más sin recompensa significativa, mientras que en el puesto más simbólico y menos demandante– el consejo editorial –hay menos mujeres.

“…1 There are numerous types of gender asymmetries, such as in the metrics of career progressions (Akhtar et al 2005; American Political Science Association 2004); authorship of articles (Campos and Candido 2022; Teele and Thelen 2017; Williams et al 2015) and books (Samuels and Teele 2021); citations received (Dion, Sumner, and Mitchell 2018); distribution of thematic areas (Candido, Campos, and Feres Júnior 2021; Key and Sumner 2019); and evaluation of professors (Chávez and Mitchell 2020). Racial diversity indicators are less frequent but tend to demonstrate that disparities between white and Black scholars are even more extreme (Ards and Woodard 1992; Candido, Feres Júnior, and Campos 2019).…”

This study examines the division of labor among political scientists during different periods of the COVID-19 pandemic. The article explores the hypothesis that the pandemic increased inequalities, especially by exacerbating the burden of housework and care responsibilities for women. We ground our analysis on the results of two surveys conducted in Brazil: one shortly after the onset of the pandemic in June 2020; and the other, more recently, from March 2022, after the ending of social-distancing measures. Brazil is a relevant case study because it was an epicenter of the virus for many months. This public health crisis occurred while a denialist and authoritarian government was in power. Considering gender and race variables, the data show a transformation of the dynamics of time organization during the period. At the beginning of the pandemic, men—primarily white men—devoted more time to academic work; in 2022, the most substantive difference was one of race. We observed a greater convergence among white people, as opposed to Black people, about household chores, with the latter group more overloaded than the former group. Traditional class and race inequalities concerning the Brazilian population can contribute to the explanation for this. When in-person work returned, white political scientists began to outsource domestic care more than their nonwhite counterparts.
