Women in parliament: beyond numbers

---

Women in Parliament: Beyond Numbers examines the substantive impact of women’s political representation, moving beyond mere numerical presence to assess their influence on policy, governance, and democratic processes. The book explores how women legislators shape legislative agendas, advocate for gender-sensitive policies, and contribute to political culture.

Through comparative case studies and empirical analysis, the volume highlights both achievements and challenges faced by women in parliamentary roles, including structural barriers, political tokenism, and societal expectations. It underscores that meaningful participation requires not only increasing numbers but also empowering women to exercise authority, leadership, and decision-making effectively.
