Chapter 1: Policy Representation in the Contemporary United States

Chapter one: How Well Do Policy Makers Represent the People?
Hoover senior fellow Brandice Canes-Wrone explores how well policy makers are representing the people in America. To understand how well represented the people are, one must first understand how the public opinion is measured. Canes-Wrone uses these measurements to provide evidence of how well represented the people are and how responsive policy makers are to changes in public opinion.
