Abstract

There are two main topics around which, from the point of view of scholars, in
gender, the debate is developing about a reduction in the number of parliamentarians,
constitutional reform text submitted to popular vote in a referendum next year
March 29th, that is: (a) the source indicating the number of Members of Parliament, namely the text
constitutional law, an organic law, an ordinary law; and (b) the determination of the
number of parliamentarians, which for some is an explicit and precise figure, substantiated in a
fixed number, as for example it happens today in Italy; for others, instead, it is a mobile number,
dependent on the relationship with the population, as is the case today in Romania;
for others, finally, it is a free variable that applies from a number
minimum set of parlamen tary and which depends on the outcome of the election, being able to determine
so-called "supernumerary" seats, such as today in Germany.
