In celebration of the 20th anniversary of Politics & Gender, past and current journal editors were asked to identify some of their favorite articles published during their editorial terms. Criteria for selecting these articles reflected a mix of considerations, including the impact and originality of the articles – as well as their relevance to understanding the current political climate. Collectively, they reflect the broad reach of the journal, representing different subfields and methodological approaches, as well as the work of junior and more established scholars.
