Edited by  <https://effective-states.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e7c0fb349ad0f5a9a3dbfbe0a&id=2a09d1c326&e=4e3bd88f7f> Sohela Nazneen,  <https://effective-states.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e7c0fb349ad0f5a9a3dbfbe0a&id=39bd60e84e&e=4e3bd88f7f> Sam HIckey and  <https://effective-states.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e7c0fb349ad0f5a9a3dbfbe0a&id=66f4e29201&e=4e3bd88f7f> Eleni Sifaki, this groundbreaking book, out on 13th March, but already available through  <https://effective-states.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e7c0fb349ad0f5a9a3dbfbe0a&id=26567e539c&e=4e3bd88f7f> open access, uncovers the political dynamics that influence governments to adopt and implement gender equity policies.

Pushing the debate beyond simply the role of women’s inclusion in influencing policy, the book proposes the new concept of 'power domains' and examines their role in shaping policies that promote gender equity.

"This book provides exciting new ways of thinking about how women’s rights policy change occurs in the Global South. ... It is certain to influence contemporary thinking about gender-related policy reform..." 
Professor Aili Mari Tripp, University of Wisconsin-Madison

Edited by  <https://effective-states.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e7c0fb349ad0f5a9a3dbfbe0a&id=426f8a0fcf&e=4e3bd88f7f> Sam Hickey and  <https://effective-states.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e7c0fb349ad0f5a9a3dbfbe0a&id=42cd82bc0f&e=4e3bd88f7f> Naomi Hossain, this timely book focuses on how politics shapes the capacity and commitment of elites to tackle the learning crisis in six developing countries. 

The book deploys a new conceptual framework - the domains of power approach - to show how the type of political settlement in a country shapes the level of elite commitment and state capacity to improving learning outcomes.

"This excellent, well researched and wide-ranging series of case studies sheds light on a key issue of our time, namely how to transform the political economy of education systems to enable learning for all"  
Professor Leon Tikly, University of Bristol

This flagship international conference will showcase ESID research findings, and place them into conversation with the broader range of research into the politics of development.

There is still time to submit your abstract. We welcome submissions from policy actors as well as academic researchers, and papers that address issues of development policy and practice, as well as development theory.

Please  <https://effective-states.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e7c0fb349ad0f5a9a3dbfbe0a&id=c837e89af0&e=4e3bd88f7f> click here for details on conference themes and how to submit a proposal.
