Sævar Finnbogason talks to Jón Ólafsson and Valgerður Björk Pálsdóttir from the DCD research team about the lessons from the Deliberative Poll on the constitution of Iceland, convened by Icelandic Government, where 230 Randomly selected Icelanders participated in a productive Deliberative meeting. Will the poll influence policy and will Althingi be able to agree on any changes to the constitution? Will the political reality in Iceland and opposition from supporters of the Constitutional Council bill from 2011 prevent changes from succeeding.
