Since the passing of the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 on women, peace, and security more than two decades ago, there has been a global push to bolster the inclusion of women in these processes. When women are selected into peace delegations for the wrong reasons, they—like men—can hinder or stall progress. Yet, very little work has analyzed which women are included in peace processes, how they are selected, why they are selected, and how their individual experiences influence both their behavior and the outcomes of those processes. We identify four selection criteria used to select participants in negotiations: (1) reliability as assessed through either connections to elites or ideological purity; (2) qualifications such as experience in the armed forces, rebel forces, civil society, or academia; (3) personal appeal or ability to elicit sympathy based on factors such as victimhood, attractiveness, youth, or demographics; and (4) selection by a third party whose strength and size have allowed it to negotiate representation in the process. It is likely that in many cases, multiple motives and selection criteria are at play in the selection of individual women (or men). We consider how gender impacts the implementation of these criteria, drawing on a variety of peace processes, but especially the Havana Peace Talks between the Colombian government and Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarios Colombianos–Ejército del Pueblo. This framework sets the foundation for the development of three research agendas: the first relating to which women get a seat at the table, the second to how the individual backgrounds of the women selected into the peace process influence outcomes, and the third to issues of intersectionality and representation.

出于正确的原因：选择女性作为和平代表

自二十多年前联合国安理会通过关于妇女、和平与安全的第 1325 号决议以来，全球一直在推动将妇女纳入这些进程。当女性因错误的原因被选入和平代表团时，她们会像男性一样阻碍或阻碍进展。然而，很少有工作分析哪些妇女被纳入和平进程、她们如何被选中、她们被选中的原因以及她们的个人经历如何影响她们的行为和这些进程的结果。我们确定了用于选择谈判参与者的四个选择标准：（1）通过与精英的联系或意识形态纯度评估的可靠性；（二）在军队、叛军、民间社会或学术界的经历等资格；(3) 基于受害性、吸引力、年轻或人口统计等因素的个人吸引力或引起同情的能力；(4) 由实力和规模允许其在此过程中协商代表权的第三方选择。在许多情况下，多种动机和选择标准可能在选择个别女性（或男性）时发挥作用。我们利用各种和平进程，特别是哥伦比亚政府与 Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarios Colombianos–Ejército del Pueblo 之间的哈瓦那和平会谈，考虑性别如何影响这些标准的实施。该框架为制定三个研究议程奠定了基础：第一个涉及女性在谈判桌旁的席位，
