Session Description

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly transformed politics across the globe. The papers on this panel identify and explore the gendered implications of these COVID-informed political transformations. Panelists focus their analyses on how the pandemic has helped to: reinscribe traditional understandings of effective leadership in New Zealand; fuel the rise in gender-based violence and discrimination in Nigeria; curtailed public support for women’s formal employment; and shifted gendered expectations of caretaking in the U.S.
