The document outlines Alessandro Pizzorno's theory on the rationality of democratic choice. It presents a series of assumptions that lead people to prefer democracy over other forms of government, including that each individual acts in their own self-interest and is the best judge of their interests. It also argues that the democratic system is the most efficient at satisfying people's interests. However, it acknowledges criticisms of this view, such as that people are not always the best judges of their long-term interests and voters do not fully control the politicians they elect. The document examines different perspectives on rational political action and representation.
