Deliberation may be the most important field of research human kind will engage in the 21th century. Deliberation is so important, because every group of people as small as a group composed of two people, like a couple, to groups so large that they consisting billions, like China and India, needs to find solution that will help their members prosper. To prosper, all groups have to arrive at the best solutions available in their current situation. Deliberation is a field of research that engages the ways people can work together in pursuit of the best solution. If we will understand how to promote together the best solution through agreements, we will find ways to bring prosperity to wider population, and may also bring more peace among nationsourselves.
From the start of civilization until our days, decisions for a group were put at the hands of a small groups of decision makers. Although this method had helped create our mega to giga groups, it provided these small groups that are positioned near the center of decision making process, an abounded resources and wealth, while leaving the other members in the outer circles with much less resources. In modern representative democracy, the size of the groups of decision makers become bigger than those of the old monarchies, thus promoting more equality, and more wisdom into the decision making process. Bringing more people into the decision making circles made the groups wiser and more legitimate by their people, thus making them much stronger then monarchies. This may be one of the main causes for the triumph of democracies over tyrannies in the 20th century.
