democracy
under the influence of the theory of deliberative democracy, there have been several experiments since the start of the new millennium with what are called deliberative fora, places (in real life or in cyber space) where citizens and their representatives assemble to exchange reasons. one type of deliberative forum is called a minpublic: a body of randomly chosen or actively selected citizens that represents the whole population. the use of random selection to form a representative deliberative body is known as sortition. examples of this are citizens' assemblies and citizens' juries. citizens' assemblies have been used in canada (2004, 2006) and the netherlands (2006) to debate electoral reform, and in iceland (2009 and 2010) for broader constitutional change.
