She assesses a range of obstacles faced by women entering politics, including the media's biased role in portraying the private lives of women in politics, and she questions why citizens find politics to be under-represented. represented in Canada compared to Belgium. In clear and accessible terms, Bashevkin explains his ideas on how to eliminate “low voter turnout,” “devaluation of politics,” “gender patterns,” and “media framing.” She presents some convincing solutions to break the impasse facing women in Canadian politics: challenging media representations, changing the rules of the game, improving legislative quotas, electoral reform, renewal of movements, etc. a dominant political current, the actions that should be taken against the oppressive elements of reality and the awareness that it brings through the economic, social and political environment.
