The Politics of Representation in the Global Age

'This is an excellent, coherent collection of essays unified around the theme of interest representation, in particular the ways in which globalization has transformed domestic reformulation of interests. Beginning with an outstanding introduction by the editors, the volume continues with contributors speaking effectively to the core themes, and to one another. The identification, mobilization, and adjudication processes that the authors describe provide, both analytically and heuristically, an effective framework for the book. I envision this book being required reading on graduate comparative political economy syllabi.' Rawi Abdelal, Harvard Business School
'This volume seeks to offer an alternative way of understanding the construction of political interests, one that differs from the mechanistic conceptions that dominate socioeconomic, institutional, and cultural approaches. It does so by considering how processes of globalization have reshaped interest representation. This work has the potential to influence a wide range of scholars. It showcases the value of problematizing interest representation in the global age, and every single chapter makes an empirical or theoretical contribution to a body of literature.'
