Product Description

The Good Representative (New Directions in Ethics)

Used Book in Good Condition

In The Good Representative, Suzanne Dovi argues that democratic citizens should assess their representatives by their display of three virtues: they must be fair-minded, build critical trust, and be good gatekeepers.

This important book provides standards for evaluating the democratic credentials of representatives.
Identifies the problems with and obstacles to good democratic representation.
Argues that democratic representation, even good democratic representation, is not always desirable.
Timely and original, this book rejects the tendency to equate respect for the preferences of citizens with neutrality on the standards used in choosing their representatives.
