Description

The purpose of this paper is to examine arguments over the issue in France. As for French electoral systems, two-round system (scrutin à deux tours) or runoff voting must be generally reminded. It is the key concept to understand in the domain. It is used, sometimes combined with the list, at multi-levels of the government, including the presidential elections. The second key concept, gender parity (parité) is added in the context. All the electoral system reforms after 2000 are more or less discussed from the point of view. Gender party concept (un binôme hommefemme) has been finally attached to the single-member district at the departmental elections. As the result of considerations, however, these French exceptions would not be transferred to other countries.
