Abstract

This article proposes an analytical framework for studying in a more robust manner the co-occurrence of representation and deliberation. To avoid the pitfall of treating the concept of representation and deliberation as either mutually exclusive or fully intertwined, the framework distinguishes three key features for entangling the two-way interplay of political representation and deliberation: the context of representation, deliberative performance and representative judgement. As such, it will help us discern why representatives in varying contexts of representation resort to different deliberative performances, and how representative judgement is feasible within this backdrop. This proposal builds upon reading current theoretical re-examinations as an illustration of the convergence of the two concepts. These developments also indicate not only how representation can act as a dynamic resource for deliberation, but also how deliberation can constitute and establish representation.
