  • Norwegian Parliamentary Elections, 1906-2013: Representation and Turnout Across Four Electoral Systems
    Norwegian Parliamentary Elections, 1906-2013: Representation and Turnout Across Four Electoral Systems Jon H. Fiva ∗ Daniel M. Smithy February 15, 2017 Abstract Since gaining full independence in 1905, Norway has experienced more than a cen- tury of democratic elections, and has reformed its electoral system three times, most notably with the switch from a two-round runoff system to proportional rep- resentation in 1919. This article introduces a new data set featuring all candidates running for parliamentary (Storting) elections from 1906 to 2013, and document patterns over time and across electoral systems in the development of the party sys- tem; candidates' gender, age, occupation, and geographic ties; and voter turnout. Scholars interested in using the data set can gain access to it through the Norwegian Centre for Research Data (NSD). ∗BI Norwegian Business School. E-mail: jon.h.fi[email protected] yHarvard University, E-mail: [email protected] 1 Norway is one of the world's oldest and most stable democracies. Officially, the starting point of modern Norwegian democracy is May 17, 1814, when the Constitution was adopted. The Constitution of 1814 is the now the oldest codified constitution in Europe, and is second globally only to that of the United States (Narud and Strøm 2011). Although formally in a union with Sweden from 1814, Norway enjoyed over a hundred years of quasi-independent growth and political development before full independence was declared in 1905. The separation was peaceful, and subsequently approved by a national referendum. A second referendum in 1905 established Norway as a constitutional monarchy. The first electoral system used for the Norwegian Storting (parliament), introduced by the 1814 Constitution, was based on indirect elections with plurality rule.

  • A Day in Luxembourg, LUXEMBOURG
    A Day in Luxembourg, LUXEMBOURG Why you should visit Luxembourg Luxembourg is the epitome of “the charming European city” we all grew up imagining. It’s amazingly cosmopolitan but not overwhelming, except for its extremely complex history. Its gorges traverse the city, making it a spectacular three-dimensional city, with lit-up fortifications along the walls of the gorges -- perfect for the historian and the romantic. And the food is a lovely mix of French, German, Italian and of course Luxembourgish. Three things you might be surprised to learn about Luxembourg and the people 1. Luxembourg is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its old quarters and fortifications. 2. General George Patton is buried here 3. Villeroy & Boch ceramics started in Luxembourg Favorite Walks/areas of town Go to the visitors center in Place Guillaume to sign up for any of the many fantastic—and reasonably priced—group or individual walking, biking or driving (even in your own car) historic tours with an official guide. The tours can include visits to: • Historic city center • The Petrusse gorge next to the city center • The historic Grund, down below the city center • Clausen, near the Grund • Petrusse and Bock Casemates Other very good things to do/see • American Military Cemetery, Hamm: A beautiful cemetery with more than 5,000 soldiers, most of whom fell in the Battle of the Bulge of WWII in 1944-45. The cemetery also has an impressive chapel and is the burial place of General George Patton. www.abmc.gov/cemeteries/cemeteries/lx.php • German Military Cemetery, Sandweiler: A short drive from the Hamm cemetery, this cemetery has a much more somber feel to it, containing more than 10,000 German soldiers who perished in the Battle of the Bulge in 1944-45.

  • Act on the Althing Ombudsman
    Act No. 85/1997 on the Althing Ombudsman Article 1 Election of the Althing Ombudsman The Althing Ombudsman is elected by Althing for a period of four years. He shall fulfil the conditions provided by law as to fitness to hold the office of Supreme Court Justice and may not be a Member of Althing. In the event of the death of the Ombudsman, or his permanent incapacitation for other reasons, Althing shall hold a new election for the office. The same applies if the Ombudsman is released from his duties of his own volition, or if two thirds of the members of Althing vote to dismiss him. In case of a temporary absence of the Ombudsman the Speaker of Althing will appoint a substitute to act for him meanwhile. Article 2 Role of the Althing Ombudsman, etc. The role of the Althing Ombudsman is to monitor, on behalf of Althing and in such manner as is further stated in this Act, the administration of the State and local authorities, and to safeguard the rights of the citizens vis-a-vis the authorities. He shall ensure that the principle of equality is upheld in public administration and that such administration is otherwise conducted in conformity with the law and good administrative practice. The Ombudsman shall not, in the discharge of his functions, have to take instructions from anybody, Althing included.
