Talk:Demarchy

Is this really the correct definition of Demarchy? The way it's written here implies that individual posts (probably executives) are randomly selected. The way it's written, it can be interpreted to mean either that they are randomly selected from citizens who signed-up (similar to how a citizen would sign-up for election candidacy), or randomly selected from a legislature (a twist on the parliamentary system, or like in Ancient Athens). This explains why it's said to have inspired Kakistocracy.

But is this really what it means? My understanding is that demarchy is a form of direct democracy in which the legislature is made of randomly-selected citizens.

But even if we don't agree on a definition, I think the alleged influence on Kakistocracy should be removed. --LiamM32 (talk) 07:06, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
