Thank you Aili Tripp for inviting me to give a talk on autocratic genderwashing as a regime-survival strategy at the Comparative Politics Colloquium at UW–Madison. It was really inspiring to discuss my book project (with Elin Bjarnegård) with such a large and engaged group of people.


It was a true joy and privilege to visit the vibrant and impressive RU Women & Politics community earlier this week! Thank you Dr. Mona Lena Krook for inviting me! I look forward to more conversations and collaborations…
