This article presents a critical state-of-the-art assessment of empirical studies analyzing the media coverage of politicians from a gender perspective. Applying a bibliometric technique, it analyzes 330 related studies from the past three decades.
In this article, substantiated by a meta-analysis of 154 studies published between 1960 and 2022, we show that the literature on mass–elite congruence has increased exponentially in the past decade.
Mass–Elite Representation Gap in Old and New Democracies brings together a global array of scholars to examine the issue from new angles, drawing on evidence from North Africa, East Asia, Southeast Asia, South America, and Europe. This global-level analysis of different representation gaps demonstrates that these gaps vary in content, structure, and the timing of formation.
The article investigates whether media coverage varies for male and female legislators with regards to their activities in promoting women’s interests.
