N2 - To better account for the myriad ways that citizens and civil society organisations pursue their interests in today's democratic environment, authors Gisela Zaremberg, Valeria Guarneros-Meza and Adrián Gurza Lavalle develop a theoretical framework anchored around the concept of 'political intermediation'. They seek to move the current debate beyond its narrow focus on electoral processes and union organising. This book is a welcome addition to the literature because it provides a broader theoretical framework to better assess the multitude of ways that citizens engage the state, policymaking processes and the competitive aspects of representative democracy.
