"Considerations on Representative Government" is a book written by John Stuart Mill and published in 1861. In the book, Mill argues in favor of representative government as the ideal form of government. He suggests that the role of government representatives is not to make legislation, but rather to engage in public debate and act as watchdogs over those who create and administer laws and policies. Mill believes that representative bodies, such as parliaments and senates, should be places where the opinions of the population are discussed and where criticism of public officials can take place. The book emphasizes the importance of representative bodies in indicating the wants and demands of the public. Mill's ideas on representative government have been influential and continue to be studied today.
