They also have a higher standard of living. Camobreco and Barnello further argue that this group of people has a more liberal view of the role of women in society, so a "state with a more liberal population will have a higher percentage of female state legislators than a more conservative state" (p.7). .
Camobreco and Barnello point out that a more liberal view has been shown by the educated professional class than the working class. Since the cultural shift, the economy has changed from industrial to post-industrial. That means the economy has transformed from "an industrial, manufacturing based economy to an economy based on information and service" (p.4), due largely to the development of computer technology. This has brought forth the enhancement of education, which significantly contributes to the growth of a class of highly educated professional workers. Consequently, according to Camobreco and Barnello, "a state with a higher percentage of college educated citizens will have a higher percentage of female state legislators" (p.7). .
Camobreco and Barnello further emphasize that there are some factors that are not conducive to female representations in state legislatures, such as religious devotion. Study has been shown to prove that religious people are more inclined to oppose the Equal Rights Amendment so they tend to refuse the "non-traditional role" (p.6) of women in politic. Even though religion has a negative impact, post-industrialism and post materialism has a strong positive impact and will continue to do so in future American politics. .
In this article, Camobreco and Barnello adequately convey their main thesis and back it up with factual evidence and other resources. To further support their evidence they presented statistics, which I think is the best form of evidence there is because it is hard to argue against them, considering that the statistics came from a reliable source.
