Abstract
AbstractThe article describes a research program aimed at building a computerized data collection on Western European electoral history since the beginning of competitive elections. This data collection will be used by the author to study the process of nationalization at the electoral level. It comprises three parts. First, a systematic collection of results of the general elections at the constituency level has been carried out. Second, a coding work has been achieved to give a quantitative and analytical form to electoral system features: processes of enfranchisement, characteristics of representation systems and levels of equality of voting conditions. Finally, the program devoted attention to the documentation of the data: code book, sources, redistricting, election dates, history of parties and so forth.
