"How can democracies effectively represent citizens? The goal of this Handbook is
to evaluate comprehensively how well the interests and preferences of mass publics
become represented by institutions in liberal democracies. It first explores how the
idea and institutions of liberal democracies were formed over centuries and became
enshrined in Western political systems. The contributors to this Handbook, made up
of the world's leading scholars on the various aspects of political representation,
examine how well the political elites and parties who are charged with the representation
of the public interest meet their duties. Clearly, institutions often fail to live
up to their own representation goals. With this in mind, the contributors explore
several challenges to the way that the system of representation is organized in modern
democracies. For example, actors such as parties and established elites face rising
distrust among electorates. Also, the rise of international problems such as migration
and environmentalism suggests that the focus of democracies on nation states may have
to shift to a more international level. All told, this Handbook illuminates the normative
and functional challenges faced by representative institutions in liberal democracies"
