German term or phrase: Repräsentation
CONTEXT: Dieses der politischen und gesellschaftlichen Repräsentation dienende Amt hatte danach ab 1841 der österreichische Staatskanzler Clemens Fürst von Metternich inne.

this refers to the presidency of the istituta di corrispondenza archeologica. I'm sorry about the "specific field" above--I could not find anything really appropriate. Many thanks in advance.

p.s. I checked the "forum" and was not quite happy with the choices offered.

I guess this is fairly close, but I am just not happy with "representation/al". But many thanks for your efforts. If I come up with something else, I will run it by you. Frank Gentry
