Abstract
This article updates and broadens research undertaken eight years ago on the status of women in
UK political sciencei. As Bates et al. then argued (2012: 139-40), research on women in the discipline
is important, not only because of issues of equality, justice and self-reflection within the discipline,
but also because of the privileged role political scientists play in the creation and flow of knowledge
about gender inequality and women’s underrepresentation in positions of power, as well as other
important political issues more generally.
