v
Once again, Patrick Fisher offers an analysis of contemp arary American poli-
tics that is timely, well supported, and refreshingly com )rehensible. Moving
smoothly between big questions of representation and jecific examples for
lively illumination, Insufficient Representation: The Discc meet between Con-
gress and Its Citizens will help readers grasp the nature a id magnitude of the
widening chasm between citizens and policymakers in oui fragile republic,
—JANINE A. PARRY, Un /ersity of Arkansas
At a time of increased distrust and cynicism of the leg slative branch, this
book provides a unique and compelling look at the role ndividual members
of Congress play in the branch s dysfunction. Filled with :ompelling and up-
to-date data from a variety of sources, Insufficient Repress itation is an impor-
tant text for researchers, undergraduates, and others inter« sted in the modern
Congress. —KEVIN PIRCH, Eastern Was lington University
Insufficient Representation: The Disconnect between Cong ess and Its Citizens
examines how representative the US Congress is among dif erent demographic
groups and how representational issues affect Americ; ns perception of
Congress, potentially threatening its legitimacy. The openir g chapter analyzes
political representation from the perspective of the rel itionship between
voters and legislators, addressing why Congress is so dem graphically unrep-
resentative. The book then focuses on outcome—the repres «ntativeness of the
legislature in terms of its members demographic backgrc unds. Simply put,
Congress is not demographically representative of the Ame ican public. There
are significant gaps between Congress and the American pu ilic on the basis of
race, gender, religion, wealth, and generation. That membe s of Congress do
not adequately represent the diversity in their electorate sug jests that, in turn,
the governing body does not make policies that advocate fo the citizenry as a
whole.
PATRICK FISHER is professor of political science at Seton H ill University.
