摘要

谁在立法机构中有代表,这又如何取决于选举机构?其他人从性别、种族和阶级的角度提出了这个问题。我们关注空间,询问国会议员是否不成比例地来自某些地方而不是其他地方,以及这如何取决于选举规则。利用来自62个民主国家的13000多名立法者的数据,我们开发了一种新的方法来确定议员出生地的空间分布是否与他们所代表的公民的空间分布相匹配。与公认的观点相反,单成员区制并不比多成员区制具有更多的地理代表性议会,而混合成员制的表现明显优于两者。我们将混合成员系统的较高空间代表性归因于其单成员层的污染效应。我们通过对意大利、英国和德国选举的国内分析,为这一解释提供了证据。

Electoral Systems and Geographic Representation
Who gets represented in legislatures, and how does this depend on electoral institutions? Others have asked this question from the perspective of gender, race, and class. We focus on space, asking whether MPs disproportionately come from some places rather than others and how this depends on electoral rules. Using data on over 13,000 legislators in sixty-two democracies, we developed a new measure to determine whether the spatial distribution of MP birthplaces matched the spatial distribution of the citizens they represented. Contrary to received wisdom, single-member district systems do not have more geographically representative parliaments than multi-member district systems, while mixed-member systems perform significantly better than both. We attribute the higher spatial representativeness of mixed-member systems to the contamination effects in their single-member tier. We present evidence for this explanation from a within-country analysis of elections in Italy, the UK, and Germany.
