Mona Lena Krook is Professor of Political Science and Chair of the Women and Politics Ph.D. Program at Rutgers University. She received her Ph.D. from Columbia University in 2005 and has written widely on the diffusion and implementation of electoral quotas for women, including several award-winning books and articles. Her first book, Quotas for Women in Politics: Gender and Candidate Selection Reform Worldwide (Oxford University Press, 2009), received the American Political Science Association’s 2010 Victoria Schuck Award for Best Book on Women and Politics, as well as its 2019 George H. Hallett Award recognizing a book published at least ten years ago that has made a lasting contribution to the literature on representation and electoral systems.
Krook recently completed a multi-year project on the impact of quotas on democracy and gender equality, involving fieldwork and data collection across nine countries Western Europe, Latin America, and Sub-Saharan Africa, funded by a Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Award from the National Science Foundation (2010-2017). Her current research focuses on violence and harassment against politically active women. Since 2015, she has collaborated with the National Democratic Institute on its #NotTheCost campaign to stop violence against women in politics. Funded by an Andrew Carnegie Fellowship (2017-2019), she has conducted fieldwork around the globe and is currently completing a book manuscript, Violence against Women in Politics, which will be published in 2020 by Oxford University Press.
A firm believer in engaging across the academic-practitioner divide, Krook has been a consultant for numerous civil society organizations, governments, and international organizations in Asia, Africa, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East on strategies to elect more women to political office and enhance the impact of female politicians.
