NET-ROL: Networks and the Rule of Law @net-rol.bsky.social · Aug 25

🚨 New publication!
Our first working paper, Conceptual Framework is out.
It maps how networks — social, political, economic — shape the rule of law and, in turn, influence socio-economic outcomes.
It’s the lens we’ll use to guide the empirical research that follows.

Research article "A Feminine or Masculine Crisis? Gender Stereotypes and Leadership During a Pandemic" by Elena Kantorowicz-Reznichenko, Justyna Dabrowska & Jaroslaw Kantorowicz.
Abstract begins: The COVID-19 pandemic posed new challenges for leaders, requiring behavior change and public self-compliance. Stereotypically feminine qualities, such as compassion and a good approach to people, may have helped achieve these goals, rendering the pandemic a “feminine crisis.” The special nature of this crisis, along with media attention on female-led countries successfully managing the pandemic, raises the question of whether female leaders would be perceived as more competent in handling such a crisis. In an experimental study conducted on a representative sample in Poland, we assessed whether female prime minister candidates or candidates with feminine traits had an advantage when their competence in managing a large-scale pandemic was evaluated.

🔍 How do networks shape the rule of law?
In Trento, we debated, disagreed, and discovered. The NET-ROL team left with sharper questions, shared frameworks, and new energy.
First insights coming soon!

Members of the Republican Party continuously propose legislation that would facilitate a "cult of personality" around Trump - a hallmark of authoritarian regimes.

Here is a partial list to help as we keep track of the myriad of ways democracy can erode.
