The Scottish Parliament and the Welsh Assembly are elected by the controversial mixed-member proportional (MMP) system. Empirical evidence compares British representatives to their MMP-elected counterparts in Germany and in New Zealand. Although list-elected representatives in Britain do appear to have a different constituency role, these representatives add an important element of pluralism to Britain's majoritarian politics."--Cover Výrazy tezauru Spojené království * Skotsko * Wales * volební systém * poměrné zastoupení * parlamentní volby Klasifikační znaky 0416 - Volební proces a hlasování ISBN 978-0-230-00652-2 Copy count 1, currently available 1 Document kind Monografie
