European apportionment via the Cambridge Compromise

Geoffrey R. Grimmett

Mathematical Social Sciences, 2012, vol. 63, issue 2, 68-73

Abstract: Seven mathematicians and one political scientist met at the Cambridge Apportionment Meeting in January 2011. They agreed a unanimous recommendation to the European Parliament for its future apportionments between the EU Member States. This is a short factual account of the reasons that led to the Meeting, of its debates and report, and of some of the ensuing Parliamentary debate.
