“…As Araújo (2010) argues, women enter into politics as a means to an end, that is, they see political office not as the ultimate goal but as tool in order to achieve something. Since we found no multicollinearity issues with education, experience (albeit a limited variable), or municipal characteristics, we are left to interpret that the female mayors in the terms studied, specifically, the first and third, were more attuned to the needs of the population and had no other obstacles that we were not able to perceive.…”

“…Women have been known to have an advantage in local offices, particularly in small towns, in poorer regions of the country, but no explanation for that has been found. They are, however, excluded from donor and alliances networks, which make them less likely to be picked as their party's choice for the executive (Miguel, 2003;Miguel and Queiroz, 2006;Araújo, 2010;Gomes 2015;.…”

“…As Murray (2010) has argued, women will enter into politics much later and without the same connections and networks as men, perpetuating their status as "outsiders". Araújo (2010) discusses the difference of intent and socialisation, stating that women tend to see politics as a means to an end and men see it as an end in and of itself. This may point to women having different kinds of political ambition as well as different abilities and strategies in order to fulfil their political goals.…”

Abstract. Feminist theory has offered new institutionalism key contributions as to how gender relates to public policy. Feminist institutionalism has researched the many ways welfare policies have impacted women and the many ways women, as elected officials, have impacted those policies in turn. As substantive representation research turns its eye towards legislative representatives, women in executive offices and their actions have been overlooked.As studies show, there are certain policy areas that face gender stereotypes: education, health, arts, family protection, and other welfare areas. Brazilian federalism and its execution of welfare policies is quite specific in its institutional design. Since the end of the last dictatorship, there have been efforts towards decentralisation. States have more control over their spending; however, municipalities face stricter rules regarding taxation and how to spend it. Municipalities are in charge of executing most of Brazilian public policy, but have little control in designing them. What they are allowed to design tends to be induced through programmes and resources. Those resources for the execution of programmes come from several kinds of transfers, from federal and state governments. In the state of Minas Gerais, in Brazil, the Robin Hood Law states that municipalities that create institutions and/or policies in certain welfare areas will have access to slightly more resources.Research has shown that municipalities do invest in bettering themselves in this institutionalisation process, despite the small amount of funds that come with them. Therefore, our research asks: are female mayors more efficient in accessing specific resources from government transfers? Using regression analysis and other statistical tools, we hope to able to demonstrate how gender might play a role in the division of those funds.

“…It has been widely accepted that in Brazil women rely heavily upon family connections (Miguel and Queiroz 2006), although family politics is, in fact, important for both sexes. The difference is that for men it is a springboard for the path chosen while for women it is the point of entry (Araújo 2010).…”

The following article uses a section from the survey Female presence in legislative spaces: a study of the 2010 elections for the State Assembly of Minas Gerais to see if those candidates' political trajectories differ from men's, and what were the variables with the most impact over voting. Political background has been accepted as an important factor on the amount of resources raised and votes received. This is discussed considering how this can affect newcomers, such as women. The data is comprised of a survey and financial disclosure and a linear regression was conducted to assess the impact of each variable. The article concludes that the women surveyed followed similar trajectories as men and corroborates the current knowledge that the variable with most impact is having held elective office. This can only be indicated, given the overall impact the financial variable and how it overshadowed the role of other variables.
