This book provides a theoretical and empirical examination of constituency service in developing countries. The predominant view of distributive politics in "patronage democracies" emphasizes the partisan targeting of pork and clientelism. In contrast, this book demonstrates that high-level legislators in India and other contexts often provide direct, non-partisan assistance to individual constituents.
