    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The fifth edition of Gender and Elections offers a lively, multi-faceted account of the role of gender in the electoral process through the 2020 elections. This timely yet enduring volume strikes a balance between highlighting the most important developments for women as voters and candidates in the 2020 elections and providing an in-depth analysis of the ways that gender has helped shape the contours and outcomes of electoral politics in the United States. Individual chapters demonstrate the importance of gender in understanding presidential, congressional, and state elections; voter participation, turnout, and choices; participation of African American women and Latinas; support of political parties and women's organizations; and candidate communication. New chapters explore the role of social movements in elections and introduce concepts of gendered and raced institutions, intersectionality, and identity politics applied to presidential elections from past to present. The resulting volume is the most comprehensive and reliable resource on the role of gender in electoral politics.

    'The fifth edition of&&&160;Gender and Elections is a smart, refreshing take on contemporary gendered (and ethno-racial) politics in the post-Trump era. Written by leading experts in the field, each chapter is a masterclass on the multifaceted relationship between gendered processes and electoral politics. The book is wonderfully accessible to students who would like a detailed portrait of the role that gender continues to play in American elections. Furthermore, the attention paid to the diversity among and between women as political actors is a standout strength of this new edition.' Professor Nadia Brown, Georgetown University
