The mathematical theory of democracy deals with selection of
representatives who make decisions on behalf of the whole society.
In this book, the notion of representativeness is operationalized
with the index of popularity (the average percentage of the
population whose opinion is represented on a number of issues) and
the index of universality (the frequency of cases when the opinion
of a majority is represented). These indices are applied to
evaluate and study the properties of single representatives (e.g.
president) and representative bodies (e.g. parliament, magistrate,
cabinet, jury, coalition). To bridge representative and direct
democracy, an election method is proposed that is based not on
voting but on indexing candidates with respect to the electorate's
political profile. In addition, societal and non-societal
applications are considered.
