| Line | In 1955 Maurice Duverger published The Political |
| | Role of Women, the first behavioralist, multinational |
| | comparison of womens electoral participation ever to |
| | use election data and survey data together. |
| (5) | His study analyzed womens patterns of voting, |
| | political candidacy, and political activism in four |
| | European countries during the first half of the |
| | twentieth century. Duvergers research findings |
| | were that women voted somewhat less frequently |
| (10) | than men (the difference narrowing the longer |
| | women had the vote) and were slightly more |
| | conservative. |
| | Duvergers work set an early standard for the |
| | sensitive analysis of womens electoral activities. |
| (15) | Moreover, to Duvergers credit, he placed his |
| | findings in the context of many of the historical |
| | processes that had shaped these activities. |
| | However, since these contexts have changed over |
| | time, Duvergers approach has proved more durable |
| (20) | than his actual findings. In addition, Duvergers |
| | discussion of his findings was hampered by his failure |
| | to consider certain specific factors important to |
| | womens electoral participation at the time he |
| | collected his data: the influence of political regimes, |
| (25) | the effects of economic factors, and the |
| | ramifications of political and social relations between |
| | women and men. Given this failure, Duvergers |
| | study foreshadowed the enduring limitations of the |
| | behavioralist approach to the multinational study of |
| (30) | womens political participation. |
