Studies on gender and politics increasingly recognize violence as a key threat to women’s representation and gender equality in politics (Bardall, Bjarnegård and Piscopo 2020; Krook and Sanín 2020). Studies of the character, causes and consequences of harassment, intimidation and violence in politics show that these often follow gendered and intersectional patterns. Furthermore, harms do not only extend to the individuals who have experienced violence but also to bystanders, the social groups and parties to which targeted politicians belong, and democracy in general. In this panel, we focus on the gendered and intersectional consequences of harassment, intimidation and violence in politics with four papers investigating the consequences of political violence for politicians candidates, elected representatives), parties’ and parliaments’ institutional setups, voters, and other aspects of democracy.
