The Electoral System for the European Parliament Elections

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to present the impact of the different electoral systems used for the European Parliament on the later functioning of the EP and on the way that it represents the European citizens. Will the homogenization of the electoral system at an European level have as a result a new EP, with a structure that represents the citizens’ interests in an equal manner? This is the questions I’ll try to answer.
