Democratic Political Institutions in Europe

Résumé

This chapter provides a descriptive overview of the most significant, ethically relevant features of democratic political systems and electoral institutions in Europe rather than a comprehensive empirical overview of these systems and institutions. To this purpose, the chapter pursues two objectives: 1. To systematically present the most important variables of institutional design within the diversity of European democratic political systems and institutions; 2. To identify those features of European democratic political systems and institutions that are relevant to the ethics of voting from a voter-centred perspective. This paves the way for the evaluation of political and electoral systems in terms of the ethical burdens they impose on the voter, summarising relevant descriptive findings in political science in ways that are helpful in themselves, but relevant also to the civic educational aspects of REDEM project.
