Democracy Is Possible: Civic lottery and deliberation

This book explores how random selection and deliberation can play a prominent role in political institutions.

To rethink the world, we need to rethink the way we collectively make the decisions that affect us. This book, written by Ernesto Ganuza and Arantxa Mendiharat, provides examples of how deliberative methods are used to make important decisions in many parts of the world today, in addition to their use at other historical moments. According to the authors, random selection and deliberation can help address the tension between democracy and efficiency.
