Because of the normative importance of proportionality to the democracy-justice relationship, a small but growing number of theorists are becoming interested in representative bodies that are randomly constituted. Randomness would, on average, ensure that such assemblies would represent whatever issues are salient to the public at the moment of selection, not only in proportion to the numbers of individuals with interests in particular issues, but also in proportion to the intensity with which interests and opinions are held (Burnheim 1989, Fishkin 1995, Pogge 2002, Rehfeld 2005; cf. Dahl 1989,Warren & Pearse 2008). Closely related is the concept of randomly selected citizen representative bodies, discussed below.
