Abstract

Politische Repräsentation bezweckt im Allgemeinen, politisch verbindliche Entscheidungen herbeizuführen und umzusetzen. Dabei berücksichtigen die gewählten Abgeordneten die Interessen ihrer Bürger*innen. Frauen sind jedoch in den meisten Parlamenten unterrepräsentiert. Dies wirft die Frage auf, inwieweit die Interessen von Frauen im politischen Prozess durchgesetzt werden. Unser Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, inwieweit sich substantielle Repräsentation von Frauen - also die Tätigkeit und den Einsatz von Frauen für Frauen - in Macht i.S. der Durchsetzung von policies, die Fraueninteressen widerspiegeln, verwandelt. Wir halten den Fokus auf policy-outputs für notwendig, da dadurch Aussagen über die tatsächliche Durchsetzungskraft von Frauen und damit über die Auswirkungen und Reichweite substantieller Repräsentation getroffen werden können. Dazu diskutieren wir in einem ersten Schritt die Literatur zu Fraueninteressen und beschäftigen uns anschließend mit der Forschung zu substantieller Repräsentation von Frauen in zwei politischen Arenen, der Legislative und der Exekutive. Insbesondere im Bereich substantieller Repräsentation von Frauen in der Exekutive besteht noch Forschungsbedarf.
