We, the Represented
Samenvatting
What happens when democracy still functions, yet no longer convinces? When citizens vote, but feel unheard. When governments exist, but struggle to govern. We, the Represented is a bold and provocative political philosophy book that examines the growing distance between citizens and power in modern Europe.
Through reflections on representation, party control, referendums, monarchy, civic participation, and institutional reform, Rubèn Cottenjé explores how democratic systems have become trapped in outdated structures. Elections remain, but legitimacy weakens. Institutions endure, but trust declines.
Rather than calling for revolution, this book offers a new democratic architecture: a model in which government can act, citizens can correct, and balance can be restored. Combining history, philosophy, and contemporary political analysis, We, the Represented challenges readers to rethink freedom, authority, and the future of governance.
