So 'Sarah', a senior Aboriginal public servant, imagines a conversation with the Northern Territory Public Service. Her question suggests tensions for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders who have accepted the long-standing invitation to join the ranks of the public service. Reluctant Representatives gives us a rare glimpse into the working world of the individuals behind the Indigenous public sector employment statistics. This empathetic expose of the challenges of representative bureaucracy draws on interviews with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians who have tried making it work. Through Ganter's engaging narration, we learn that the mere presence of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in the public service is not enough. If bureaucracies are to represent the communities they serve, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander public servants need to be heard and need to know their people are heard. 588 0 Print version record. 590 JSTOR|bBooks at JSTOR Open Access 650 0 Aboriginal Australians|zAustralia|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85009627|zNorthern Territory|0https ://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81035353-781|xGovernment relations.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99005270 650 0 Torres Strait Islanders|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh86007508|zAustralia|zNorthern Territory|0https: //id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81035353-781|xGovernment relations.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99005270 650 0 Aboriginal Australians|zAustralia|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85009627|zNorthern Territory|0https ://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81035353-781|xPolitics and government.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002011436 650 0 Torres Strait Islanders|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh86007508|zAustralia|zNorthern Territory|0https: //id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81035353-781|xPolitics and government.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002011436 650 0 Representative government and representation|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85112947|zAustralia |zNorthern Territory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n81035353-781 650 7 Aboriginal Australians.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/794496 650 7 Torres Strait Islanders.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1152819 650 7 Politics and government.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1919741 650 7 Representative government and representation.|2fast|0https ://id.worldcat.org/fast/1094941 650 7 Political participation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1069386 651 0 Australia|xPolitics and government|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85009597|xCitizen participation. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005035 651 7 Australia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204543 651 7 Northern Territory.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1212709 655 0 Electronic book. 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aGanter, Elizabeth.|tReluctant representatives : Blackfella bureaucrats speak in Australia's north.|dCanberra : ANU Press, ©2016 |z9781760460327 830 0 Research monograph (Australian National University.
