1952 electoral law

The 1952 Electoral Law in Italy established new rules for elections following World War II. It introduced a mixed electoral system combining proportional representation and a majority bonus, intended to ensure stability in government by favoring larger parties. It also set a threshold for parties to enter Parliament, aiming to reduce fragmentation. This law sought to balance fair representation of various political groups while promoting effective governance, reflecting the country's shift toward democracy and social order during the post-war period. It was a significant step in shaping Italy's contemporary political landscape.
