Posts by Michał Gulczyński

Today marks one year since I submitted a paper to a good journal in political science. And I’m still waiting for the first reviews. When we write to the editors, they reluctantly promise to remind the reviewers.

Any recommendations? What should I do?

Radio Poznań opublikowało wywiad z @gulczynski.bsky.social wokół książki "Mężczyźni. O nierówności płci".

Polecamy szczególnie świetną sondę uliczną (od 5:50).

Z nietypowych tematów była mowa o zdrowiu mężczyzn przed poczęciem dziecka oraz dwie piosenki wybrane przez naszego wiceprezesa 🙂

Por otra parte, no dicen nada de la brechas de género en competencia lectora y Erasmus+ o de estrategias para la salud de los hombres.

Men in European Union’s gender equality policies
Michał Gulczyński 

Gender mainstreaming is designed to address the social roles of both women and men. How are men included in gender equality policies? I conduct an analysis of all gender equality strategies and annual reports of the European Commission – a global leader in this field – since 1982. I find that, since the mid 1990s, the Commission has included men as contributors to gender equality (‘problem solvers’). Yet, men’s disadvantages in education and health were only addressed between 2006 and 2015. Later on, men’s problems have been ignored, as they have been increasingly portrayed as a uniformly privileged group, undeserving of European policies. This withdrawal from addressing men’s problems exposes the tension between legitimising policies for one group (women) and addressing the needs of a complementary group (men). A novel approach to gender equality policies should revive the global debate on their meaning and implications. My findings also raise new questions about the power of the European Commission to construct policy target populations.

Los hombres en las políticas de igualdad europeas: @gulczynski.bsky.social analiza cómo han pasado de tener problemas específicos a no merecer políticas por ser un colectivo privilegiado.

Interesantísimo análisis, va un hilo rápido.

My short debut in the Brussels bubble media.

I comment on the last edition of the Gender Equality Index. Don't believe we are "50 years from equality"; the increase of the index is driven mostly by women's increasing participation in power.
There is little or negative change in other areas.

An Audit of Social Science Survey Experiments Abstract. Survey experiments have become a popular methodology for causal inference across the social sciences. We study the efficacy of survey experiment

Needed - larger samples, more realism about (the lack of) heterogeneous treatment effects:
-"less than a third of proposed hypotheses were supported... the largest predictor of positive exp. results was sample size"
-"moderation hypotheses were rarely significant"

I don't know the business agreements between journals and publishers, and we surely agree that the current system is bad. In an ideal world some of the huge publishers' profits should cover this.

Some journals in econ have submission fees.

Shouldn't the "top3" or "top6" journals in a discipline have an in-house full-time statistician who would run the codes and review the models (in parallel to the normal review process)?
