Beschreibung

In this geographically wide-ranging assessment of the figure of the politician in modern and contemporary Europe, Pasi Ihalainen, Rosario López, Kari Palonen, and Henk te Velde re-examine the trajectory of terms like 'politician' and 'statesman', in order to spotlight how profoundly the concept of representative democracy is shifting.
