- W2242509412 abstract "In many parts of the world, it has been argued that descriptive representation can enhance government legitimacy and improve relationships between constituents and their legislative representatives. Generally this argument has been made in the context of racially, ethnically or religiously divided societies. Yet, as I argue in this paper, from a theoretical standpoint, the importance of descriptive representation need not necessarily be limited to such instances. Botswana is often lauded for the ways in which it has reduced the salience of ethnic divisions since independence. As such, it provides an important case in which to examine the ways in which descriptive representation on a number of grounds (ethnicity, gender, class) does or does not influence the relationship of ordinary citizens to the state. Using a unique dataset on Botswana Members’ of Parliament biographies and attributes (including subjective ethnic identities drawn from elite interviews) as well as citizen survey data, this paper assesses whether and how shared representative-constituent personal characteristics shape constituents’ perceptions of and willingness to engage with their elected representatives in Botswana." @default.
