## Description
Earlier this year Ragnhild Louise Muriaas started a project funded by The European Research Council (ERC Consolidator grant) with the title “Gender-Gap in Political Endurance: a novel political inclusion theory” (SUCCESS). The paper presented in this seminar, based on research conducted by Ragnhild Louise Muriaas and Torill Stavenes, discusses the novelty of the concept of political endurance and aims to establish how the size of a gender gap in political endurance varies over time and countries in western democracies. The scholars study how gender shapes political endurance in parliaments, building on the research documenting how newcomers are disadvantaged their first term in office, while senior members enjoy certain privileges. Thus, if there are gender gaps in political endurance women could face more barriers than men in getting their job done as representatives. They put forward three different measures to study gender gaps in political endurance to find out if, how and when men are more likely than women to be a parliamentary stayer. Studying the endurance of all parliamentarians in 10 western democracies from 1965 to 2021 they show that there are gender gaps in political endurance across the different measurements, but that gender gaps are particularly apparent if they concentrate on those that have served as parliamentarians for three or more terms.
