Description: "The result of a report prepared for the Fundación Milenio, a private think tank linked to current President Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada, study is representative of a large body of works related to Bolivian constitutional reform, specifically in regard to the electoral system. Provides an incomplete comparative introduction to electoral systems and a good discussion of the German electoral law which combines proportional representation and single member district systems. In 1994 Bolivia adopted a similar law, and beginning in 1997, 50 percent of the members of the Cámara de Diputados are elected using a single member district strategy. Author does not fully justify the application of this system to Bolivia"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
