September 2025 | SUCCESS panel at SISP annual conference

This September, Francesca Feo & Seréna Nilsson Rabia chaired a panel titled Navigating Political Landscapes: Gender, Power, Space and Representation at the Italian Political Science Association (SISP) Annual Conference in Naples.

The panel brought together a very interdisciplinary group of scholars exploring how different institutions and systems of power - from political parties, to the police - produce, maintain and reproduce gendered dynamics and gendered representations.
