Abstract

The increasing use of mini-publics in the policy process, ranging from citizens’ juries and deliberative polls to the more recent British Columbia Citizens’ Assembly, has coincided with the emergence of theories of deliberative democracy.

This article analyses the extent to which mini-publics live up to the deliberative ideal and the ways in which the analysis of the practice of mini-publics allows us to reflect on the evaluative commitments of theorists
