q1 · i? · causal · r1

Authors' interpretive conclusion drawn from the Danish Deliberative Poll findings, including that "self-interest and domination also appeared during the deliberative process". This is the authors' argument rather than a tested result; the article offers it as a theoretical recommendation.

"The article emphasizes the need for further elaboration of the theory of deliberative democracy so that it better reflects these features of 'real-life' politics."
