What Women Want delves into a comprehensive examination of decades of voting preferences, values, and policy preferences, aimed at dispelling prevalent media and academic misconceptions regarding gender gaps in voting and policy preferences. Through meticulous analysis, the study reveals that no singular theory can adequately explain the emergence, absence, or evolution of differences in women's and men's voting preferences. Instead, it offers a multifaceted framework that expands existing theories to provide a more nuanced understanding of gender and its impact on individual voters' preferences.
Dr. Steel's research encompasses the long-term effects of party identification and class politics on political decision-making, particularly in how they shape preferences regarding social provision and expectations of the state. She also highlights the significance of symbolic politics, recognizing the role that symbols, narratives, and cultural norms play in shaping women's and men's political attitudes and behaviors.
By integrating these various dimensions, What Women Want offers a rich and nuanced perspective on gender and voting behavior. It sheds light on the complex interplay between social, cultural, and political factors that influence women's and men's political choices, challenging preconceived notions and providing valuable insights into the dynamics of democratic politics. This book is a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and policymakers interested in understanding the complexities of gender and its influence on political outcomes.
