  • Early Parliamentary Elections February 9, 2020
    INSTITUTE FOR DEMOCRATIC INITIATIVES (IDI) ! REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJAN EARLY PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS FEBRUARY 9, 2020 II INTERIM REPORT (January 17, 2020 - February 07, 2020) BAKU FEBRUARY 8, 2020 1 I. SUMMARY At this stage, IDI prepared a report by conducting monitoring on the pre-election environment, the election preparation process, the nomination and registration process, the activities of the election administration, preparation for the campaign, the status of complaints and appeals. No progress has been made in the pre-election campaign to ensure political freedoms, in particular, freedom of speech and press and freedom of assembly, and those who are considered as political prisoners were not released. During the reporting period, the Central Election Commission (CEC) continued its preparations for the forthcoming elections and technically carried out its activities according to the law and during the legal period. However, it could not ensure equal conditions for candidates during the pre-election campaign. The update of voter lists was finished on January 15 with 5,238,000 people in 125 constituencies. 25,098 voters were added to the list. The figure released by the CEC is still drastically different from the figure released by the State Statistics Committee. According to IDI observations, voter lists were not placed at precincts in some election constituencies or it is impossible to see those lists due to the areas they were placed. Furthermore, some polling stations were closed during working hours. 313 people withdrew their nominations within a very short time. Observations show that mass and immediate withdrawal of candidates creates doubt that the process will be carried out by instruction.

    This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by European Yearbook of Minority Issues, available online: https://doi.org/10.1163/22116117_01701010 The 2018 South Tyrolean Election and the Consociational System of Democracy: Stability amidst Change? Matthias Scantamburlo (Aston University) Abstract: This article explores the impact of the 2018 South Tyrolean election on the autonomous province’s consociational system of democracy. Implemented to tame centrifugal tendencies between the territory’s language groups (German, Italian and Ladin), this system has since the 1990s been losing its inclusive capacity. While the Italian-speaking electorate has increasingly been underrepresented in the main decision-making processes, the German-speaking intra-ethnic electoral arena experienced the rise of secessionist parties. The article shows that, despite major changes affecting party politics in South Tyrol, the outcome of the 2018 election contributed to restore stability to the consociational system. Keywords: territorial politics – ethnic politics – consociationalism – regional elections – South Tyrol Matthias Scantamburlo is postdoctoral researcher at Aston University (Birmingham) and team member of the Regional Manifestos Project at the University of Deusto (Basque Country). I. INTRODUCTION The election to the provincial council, the Landtag, of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano/South Tyrol (hereafter South Tyrol), held on 21 October 2018, resulted in a major shift of power and important changes in the province’s consociational political system. The South Tyrolean Peoples’ Party (SVP), the main representative of the German- and Ladin-speaking minorities and regional key power player since 1945, for the first time in its history forms a government with an Italian-speaking right-wing party, the populist (Northern) League (LN).
