dc.description.abstract | The aim of this paper is to understand the role played by political parties in the electoral reforms that have characterised the Italian experience since 1993. In order to do so, the authors: 1) describe the scholarly debate on how parties relate to electoral rules and form of government; 2) shed light on the most significant aspects of the Italian electoral reforms at local, regional and State level; and 3) analyse these reforms from the perspective of the party context. The conclusion is that parties have played only a partial role: while strong pressure to implement change has derived from external factors (referendum and judicial interventions), a widespread tendency towards concentrating power and personalising the political forces has ignored the importance of party dynamics in the way that parliamentary forms of government function. | en |
dc.description.abstract | L’objectiu d’aquest article és entendre el paper que han tingut els partits polítics en les reformes electorals que han caracteritzat l’experiència italiana des de 1993. Per tal d’aconseguir-ho, els autors: 1) descriuen el debat acadèmic que hi ha hagut sobre com els partits es relacionen amb les normes electorals i la forma de govern; 2) posen llum en els aspectes més significatius de les reformes electorals italianes a nivell local, regional i estatal; i 3) analitzen aquestes reformes des de la perspectiva del context de partits. La conclusió és que els partits polítics han tingut només un paper parcial: mentre la gran pressió per impulsar canvis s’ha derivat de factors externs (referèndum i intervencions judicials), una tendència generalitzada cap a la concentració de poder i la personalització de les forces polítiques ha ignorat la importància de les dinàmiques de partit en la manera com funcionen les formes de govern parlamentàries. | en |
