This is the first book-length study of its kind to analyse the effects of
electoral systems on the representative activities of elected parliamentar}
representatives. Two unique sets of data were gathered for this study
and this is the first time the results have been published. As the first
study of its kind, it will be of great interest to comparative legislative
studies scholars and electoral systems specialists. This book will also
be in demand among
EU
scholars interested in questions relating to
institutional reform in the
EU.
The past
15
years have seen declining public support for European
integration, and widespread suggestions that a legitimacy crisis faces
the European Union
(EU).
Many in the
EU
have believed that this
problem could be effectively tackled by vesting greater powers in the
European Parliament (EP), the Unions only directly-elected institution.
The central argument of this book is that, while considerable efforts
have been made to increase the status of the EP, it is in crucial respects
a failure as a representative body. This failure is grounded in the manner
in which the parliament is elected. The electoral systems used for EP
elections in many
EU
countries are, it is argued, actively obstructive of
Europe s voters being represented in the way that they are most likely
to respond positively towards. While the behaviour of EP members
is shaped strongly by the electoral systems under which they are
elected (which van- across the
27
member-states of the
EU),
the
electoral s)-stems currently in place push most of them to behave in
ways contrary to what citizens desire. Drawing on public opinion data,
surveys of MEPs and considerable qualitative interview evidence, it is
shown that the failure of parliamentary representation in the
EU
