Catherine Reyes-Housholder, PhD, joins Brian for a conversation about women in positions of political power in Latin America and beyond, particularly their rise to the presidency.
Catherine is an Assistant Professor at the Institute of Political Science within the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile. She is also an Associate Researcher at the university's multi-disciplinary Center for Social Conflict and Cohesion Studies (COES). Catherine earned her PhD in Government from Cornell University in 2017.
In this episode, we explore the different routes women take to win the presidency, such as through major challenger parties or incumbent parties when nominated and endorsed by outgoing leaders. The discussion includes commentary on the diverse political landscape across Latin America, the role of gender quotas in increasing women's representation, and the challenges faced by women once they achieve leadership positions. Reyes-Housholder highlights the lower approval ratings that women presidents tend to receive compared to their male counterparts and the double standards they face. She also previews upcoming elections to watch in Latin America.
Brian and Catherine talk about the reasons why the United States of America has not yet had a female head of state, including the gendered nature of the American presidency in the eyes of voters, media bias, and the failure of major parties to nominate women.
Catherine also passes along advice for aspiring politicians, particularly women, including maintaining moral integrity, building institutions, and surrounding oneself with a trusted inner circle.
