TI - How women shape the course of war: women's suffrage and the election of 1916 PY - 2022/// KW - WOMEN KW - FOREIGN POLICY KW - GENDER N2 - Studies have shown that across time and place, women, on average, are less supportive of the use of force than men. This implies that extensions of the franchise to women provide an opportunity to evaluate theories of democratic constraint on foreign policy decision making. In this article, we theorize democratic constraint on war and peace, arguing that it is a common latent constraint on elite actions and an active constraint when one party is pre-committed to a foreign policy position UR - https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/09636412.2022.2129439 ER -
