An advantage of a shorter term is that the representatives would not loose their motivation to work and would not treat their work as a routine that they just go through. Additionally, with shorter terms more people will participate in the governing body, which will lead to a better representation of the entire population. The biggest disadvantage of a short term is that it does not let the people gain experience and correct their mistakes if they shall commit any.
