The Crisis of Democratic Representation in the Andes (Hardcover)

"Why Representation Fails is an important work covering issues concerning the Andean countries that previous scholarship has addressed insufficiently. At the book's core is a concern for the role of political parties in sustaining and enhancing the capacity of democratic institutions to represent citizen interests and serve the public."--Jorge Dominguez, Harvard University
"No other book provides such depth on the contemporary shortcomings of elections, parties, and legislatures in the Andean region. This volume furnishes a fresh, coherent conceptual framework for dealing with the issue of democratic representation--an approach that could be applied to many other nations." --Paul Drake, University of California, San Diego
