In the penultimate chapter of the book, I explore the recent and attractive practice of “deliberative assemblies”. I maintain that the political crisis unleashed by “democratic erosion” (a crisis that was examined in the previous chapter) led to the creation of problem-solving alternatives that involve much more inclusive public discussion in places like Australia, Canada, Iceland, and Ireland, among several others. Through this chapter, I analyze these experiences and demonstrate that if the collective procedure is organized properly -even in the context of extremely numerous, plural, complex, multicultural, diverse, and conflictive societies- inclusive debate is possible and, above all, worthwhile.
