This panel examines how gendered discourse in media and information infrastructures shapes political legitimacy, leadership perceptions, and electoral outcomes. The papers examine how gendered language and imagery shape assumptions about authority, competence, and “fit” for office, linking representations to downstream consequences such as public attitudes about leadership and electoral careers/performance. Spanning post-Soviet states, Western Europe, and East Asian democracies methods, the panel combines diverse methods such as algorithm analysis, large-scale surveys, content analysis,regression analysis and elite interviews. Across these cases and approaches, the shared focus is how news and information environments reproduce (or reshape) gendered representations with tangible political effects for women politicians.
