A popular account of democracy reduces it to one dimension:
government is democratic if and only if it implements the will of
electoral majorities.! One-dimensional democrats argue about the
relative merits of legislatures and plebiscites. They disagree about
whether democracy requires high levels of citizen participation, or
whether it instead permits citizens to delegate their power to elite
representatives. One-dimensional democrats differ, in short, about
what kinds of electoral majorities are constitutive of democracy. But
one-dimensional democratic theory leaves no doubt about the
importance of such majorities. The democratic credentials of any
government must be measured by reference to a single variable: how
responsive is that government to the decisions of properly constituted
electoral majorities?
Neither judicial review nor constitutionalism fare well under this
test. Judicial review constrains the power of electoral majorities. So
do super-majoritarian barriers to constitutional amendment.
According to one-dimensional democratic theory, these institutions
are presumptively anti-democratic. They suffer, in the famous phrase
of Alexander Bickel, from a "counter-majoritarian difficulty."2
Constitutional theorists have fixated upon this problem for decades.3
Yet, despite its popularity, the one-dimensional account of
democracy has obvious defects.
