Diplôme Master The origins of electoral systems: A configurational research analysis eng 2013 author Merchant Faraz Ashwin 645368 director Pontusson Harry Jonas 0000-0001-8550-9022 730283 The present thesis examines the question of electoral system choice by means of a crisp-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis. The thesis argues for the development of a configurational comparative research strategy, making use of both qualitative and quantitative methods, in order to explain the relative influence of potentially causal explanatory factors. The study privileges the assessment of multiple conjunctural causation and causal asymmetry in leading to the adoption of proportionally representative electoral systems and the retention of majoritarian electoral systems.
