Taxation without representation refers to the principle that it is unjust for a government to impose taxes on individuals or groups without their consent, typically expressed through elected representatives. This concept was a significant grievance for American colonists leading up to the Revolutionary War, as they were taxed by the British Parliament where they had no elected representatives. The phrase underscores the importance of political representation in democratic governance and the belief that citizens should have a say in the laws and taxes that affect them.
