In an ideal democracy, representatives would entirely reflect
citizens' views, preferences and wishes in their legislative work.
However, real-life democracies do not meet this ideal and citizens'
policy preferences and priorities are mirrored only inadequately.
This book provides new insights on political representation. It is
guided by three questions: what roles should representatives play?
Who is actually or should be represented? How are the
representatives (or how should they be) connected with the
represented? Containing contributions from the perspectives of
political theory and philosophy, as well as quantitative empirical
studies, the volume demonstrates the need to adapt these
established questions to new political realities. This text will be
of key interest to scholars and students of political
representation and parties, political theory, democratic theory,
political philosophy and comparative politics.
