Abstract
All over the world, initiatives to institutionalize deliberative democracy, particularly in the form of citizens’ assemblies, are springing up, driven by a multitude of promises. Faced with the many perils that threaten them, some are rapidly dying out, while others are gaining in scope and scale. Belgium, a small country in the heart of Europe, provides a perfect illustration of the promises and perils of institutionalizing permanent citizens’ assemblies. It’s a story in three acts that this paper will briefly tell.
