The Future of Representative Democracy poses important questions
about representation, representative democracy and their future.
Inspired by the last major investigation of the subject by Hanna
Pitkin over four decades ago, this ambitious volume fills a major
gap in the literature by examining the future of representative
forms of democracy in terms of present-day trends and past theories
of representative democracy. Aware of the pressing need for
clarifying key concepts and institutional trends, the volume aims
to break down barriers among disciplines and to establish an
interdisciplinary dialogue among scholars. The contributors
emphasise that representative democracy and its future is a subject
of pressing scholarly concern and public importance. Paying close
attention to the unfinished, two-centuries-old relationship between
democracy and representation, this book offers a fresh perspective
on current problems and dilemmas of representative democracy and
the possible future development of new forms of democratic
representation.
