Representation and Democratic Theory investigates theoretical and practical aspects of innovative political representation in the early twenty-first century. It reveals the complexity of contemporary political representation and the importance of re-invigorating public life outside legislatures, political parties, and competitive elections. A crucial supplement to empirical studies of conventional political representation this book offers a timely and thought-provoking contribution to contemporary democratic theory. It will be a necessary and welcome addition to the libraries of many political and social scientists. 606 $aRepresentative government and representation 606 $aDemocracy 615 0$aRepresentative government and representation. 615 0$aDemocracy. 676 $a321.8 701 $aLaycock$b David H.$f1954-$0269056 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817581603321 996 $aRepresentation and democratic theory$93987895 997 $aUNINA
