What are the good and bad aspects of equal representation?
I assume you are referring to how the states are represented in the federal legislature. The small states wanted equal representation; that is, they wanted all states, regardless of population size, to have the same number of votes in the congress. The large states argued in favor of proportional representation, where votes would be apportioned by the size of the population. The compromise was, of course, to have a bicameral legislature, one with two houses, one having proportional representation, the other having equal representation.

What is the difference between demographic representation and agency representation?
In demographic representation, the characteristics of a legislature are quite similar to the characteristics of people they represent. Although US Congress is not demographically represented, it has moved closer to such representation by inducting more and more women members in recent years. In agency representation, constituents elect a representative and then monitor his performance through the term. If they feel unsatisfied of his performance they discard him and elect another member in next elections.
