| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The Women's Caucus for International Studies and the ISA Committee on the Status of Women conducted a survey of the membership concerning the effects of gender on members’ professional and personal lives in November and December 2015. Other iterations of this survey using similar questions were conducted in 1995 and 2006. A plurality of women and a majority of men responded that things have gotten better for women in the discipline. However, using more specific questions and asking for open responses, the survey uncovered that men and women still have very different experiences within the discipline and that the chilly climate continues to persist in international relations. The 2015 survey reveals continued concerns regarding the tension between familial responsibilities and the academic environment, overt and structural discrimination, and the perception of “reverse discrimination” against men. |
