How do gender quotas affect support for far-right parties? We argue that the implementation of gender quotas may further incentivize disaffected individuals to vote for far-right parties. The literature typically defines the far-right in terms of three major criteria: populism, nativism, and authoritarianism. Yet there is also an undercurrent of anti-feminism that is prominent among far-right supporters and in party platforms. Far-right parties tend to place traditional values in the spotlight, which emphasize the supportive and domestic roles of women. At times, these leanings hyperbolize a feminist oppression of men, which leaves men feeling deprived of their previous social standing. Gender quotas may trigger backlash based on these perceived threats.
We're looking for institutional arrangements that will make studying this possible relationship easier.

Research is an inherently collaborative enterprise. Our mentorship philosophy is largely hands-off. Students who want to be in the UROP program generally are excellent in their fields, and our job isn't to micromanage them. Both Mr. Roe and myself have been in their shoes. We want to emphasize that we're looking for a colleague, not a lackey.
