What Deliberative Democracy Means To go to war is the most consequential decision a nation can make. Yet most nations, even most democracies, have ceded much of the power to make that decision to their chief executives . to their presidents and prime ministers. Legislators are rarely asked or permitted to issue declarations of war. The decision to go to war, it would seem, is unfriendly territory for pursuing the kind of reasoned argument that characterizes political deliberation. Yet when President George W. Bush announced that the United states would soon take military action against Saddam Hus- sein, he and his advisors recognized the need to justify the decision not only to the American people but also to the world community.
