SWDTC Workshop: The 'constructivist turn' in the empirical and normative study of political representation

Presentation by Lisa Dish (University of Michigan)

Lisa Dish is Professor of Politics at the University of Michigan in the Departments of Political Science and Women's Studies


Event details

Her current research includes a project on political representation that seeks to reconcile the insight that acts of representation neither merely reflect constituencies nor originate with them but, rather, mobilise them with the expectation that representative democratic government must be government “by” the people.
