How are we currently valuing women's presence, voices and expertise in traditional media and social media as fellow colleagues, readers, listeners or audience members? Has the patriarchal mindset and the predomination of male experts in the International Relations field affected the way we look and value women experts whether we agree with their IR analysis or not? Are we aware of the set of beauty standards, cultural norms and behavior expectations we personally or collectively measure to define what a "good scholar" or a "good professional" should be, look or sound like? What kind of struggles, insecurities, risks and/or structural barriers do women experts face in order to be recognized as "experts" or "legitimized" by their peers within this field? Why the criticism against women's experts in IR is mostly destructive criticism and not constructive? Is it possible to revalue or re-educate our gaze and value system in a nonviolent way? This episode is a new exercise that builds on previous podcast explorations we have shared of how Feminist Theory in IR is connected to the embodied experience of people from different genders studying or working in various areas of Political Science.
