¡Has dado en el clavo con otro punto!

Aunque no podemos demostrarlo con los datos en el artículo, nuestra hipótesis de por qué se escucha menos a las mujeres reside precisamente en la falta de organización/asociación y falta de contacto con políticos de las mujeres frente a la de los hombres.

📢 ¿Escuchan los políticos menos las demandas de las mujeres que las de las hombres?

🏛️ Por desgracia, sí. Cuanto mayores sean las discrepancias entre mujeres y hombres, menor atención prestan los políticos a las mujeres.

Research article: "Beyond Likes: The Role of Influencers in Promoting Views about Feminism and Anti-feminism in Spain" by Marta Fraile, Alejandro Tirado Castro & Paula Zuluaga.
Abstract begins: This study explores the role of influencers in shaping public opinion about feminism in Spain, a country where gender equality and feminist discourse have gained relevant public prominence. Although the figure of the influencer may appear novel, the process of opinion formation mirrors that which has historically prevailed for celebrities in traditional media. However, the inherent characteristics of social media endow influencers with even greater tools of persuasion. We test this argument by collecting a representative survey of the Spanish population and analyzing posts and videos from influencers’ profiles, employing manual content analysis.

Thrilled that our article with Ioana Sendroiu and Fabian Winter is now online in the American Sociological Review!

We study how climate actions are shaped by beliefs about the past, present, and future—and expectations about others' concern about climate.
