Review :
“A vital book for understanding representative politics, moving between deeply researched case studies and theoretical reflection to show how diverse styles of performing representation may reinvigorate or harm democracy.” Eline Severs, Vrije Universiteit Brussel "With focused and original analyses of political and social representation, including studies of established and emergent groups and identities, this book provides invaluable insights into the dynamics of representation in Mexico. It also makes a significant contribution to our understanding of democracy, shining a new light on how political demands are deeply influenced by time and place." Jorge Cadena-Roa, Execuive Secretary, Mexican Social Science Council, Consejo Mexicano de Ciencias Sociales (COMECSO).
