Systematic Approach To Deliberation

Justification of Deliberation

Deliberation systems have three main functions, according to the the writers of Deliberative systems[1]. The three are Epistemic, Ethic and Democratic. On the epistemic consideration, It should produce well informed decisions. In the ethic side, deliberation creates more bonding between citizens. In the democratic perspective deliberation should take into account inputs from wider prompt opinions of the population, when making decisions.

On using Experts in Deliberation

Although experts are sometimes crucial for deliberation, because they hold more corroborated SON, there are some concern that should be addresses when expert are taking part in a deliberation. Expert may harm deliberation in those aspects:

  • Epistemically, delegation of deliberation to expert can promote citizen ignorance.
  • Expert themselves can be biased (as was suggested by Loerenz et al.[2])
