Panorámica sobre los sistemas electorales europeos desde la perspectiva del estado de derecho

2020 - Franco Angeli

61-82 p.

  • European democratic systems rest on the electoral system and the guarantees and mechanisms that allow the parliamentary conformation of pluralism. The current configuration of European electoral systems shows the historical, social and political conditions that intervene in their design and show a clear preference for the proportional system over the majority one, with the adaptation of general rules to each particular case. The preference for one or the other system reveals, in any case, an interesting and classic debate between governability and representativeness, between stability, responsibility and pluralism that today must be revisited taking into account the new internal and external factors that affect the development of electoral processes.
  • From these premises, the essay tries to offer a panoramic view of European electoral systems, underlining the role of representativeness and pluralism in electoral formulas and their potential to respond to actions contrary to pluralist democracy and the rule of law. [Publisher's text].
