Speaking For The People
Representation in Australian Politics
Marian Sawer, Gianni Zappalà
Speaking for the People introduces the concepts of representation that lie at the heart of representative democracy.
'At a time when there is major change taking place in Australian politics as old loyalties are eroded, and there is increasing evidence of alienation of some sections of the electorate from perceived "elites", this analysis of the weaknesses in existing methods of representation is most timely.'
Dr Dennis Woodward, Monash University
Without the belief that others can represent their interests, citizens will withdraw their trust from parliamentary institutions. Today this trust is fragile.

Whether and how meaningful a voice can be given to all groups within our society is one of the many questions this book addresses. Marian Sawer and Gianni Zappalà bring together old and new concepts of political representation and highlight what is distinctively Australian in our practices of representation.
