This volume is primarily concerned with equality as a basic
component of the democratic character of representation. In other
words, of the many types of equality that have attracted the
attention of theorists since democracy's beginnings - arithmetic
equality, equality before the law, equality of opportunity- we
would like to draw attention to representational equality, that is,
the role of equality in systems of democratic representation. In
what form is equality present in traditional forms of electoral
representation? How can it be secured in new forms of
representation, such as claims-making, deliberative, klerotarian
and epistemic representation? And to what extent are electoral or
non-electoral models of representation able to accommodate
increasing social inequalities? The articles in this volume discuss
these issues from a normative and conceptual point of view, seeking
to shed new light on the important but under-explored relationship
between equality and representation. This book was originally
published as a special issue of Critical Review of International
Social and Political Philosophy.
