Thanks for listening to New Books in Philosophy and bye for now.
Hello and thank you for joining us for this episode of New Books in Philosophy.
It's part of the New Books Network.
I'm Robert Talise.
I am professor of philosophy at Vanderbilt University.
I co-host the program with Carrie Figder, Malcolm Keating, and Sarah Tyson.
My guest today is Wendy Salkin.
Wendy is assistant professor of philosophy and by courtesy of law at Stanford University.
She specializes in political philosophy, philosophy of race, and philosophy of law.
And much of her work resides at the intersections between these areas and questions in ethics and feminist philosophy.
Her new book has just been published with Harvard University Press.
It's titled Speaking for Others, The Ethics of Informal Political Representation.
Now I take it that we're all familiar with the idea of a formal representative.
And perhaps that also means we're familiar with the idea of a formal political representative.
Roughly we're talking about someone who's been selected by some official process to hold an office where he or she is tasked with promoting, advocating, or speaking for a constituency.
But I take it we're also familiar with the idea of an informal representative.
This is someone who speaks for a constituency.
But isn't exactly appointed by a formal process.
