Was Athenian democracy (as the first democracy) a representative democracy?  Did decision-makers represent the interests of the people?  If so, did it matter if the representatives were randomly selected or elected? 

Can representative democracy include methods of selecting representative that are more impartial (and, therefore more "representative") than elections?  It appears that the current article on representative democracy propagates misinformation and limited thinking on what "representation" and "democracy" are all about by limiting the idea to elections.
