- Description:
- Dr. Willis Dunbar explains the election process in Italy and examines some election predictions ahead of Italy's crucial 1948 election. Dunbar explains proportional representation and then describes the impact that Italian proportional representation will have on the election, noting that there are a multitude of anti-communist parties such as the Christian Democrats, but that there is only one communist party. Dunbar also cites analysts who believe that the unity of the Communist Party and the quirks in the Italian system of proportional representation will give the communists between 20 and 25 more seats in the Chamber of Deputies than would be expected from the voting totals. Dunbar goes on to explain the intricacies of the Council of Ministers, who's makeup is controlled by the Chamber of Deputies, and the problems of involving communists in the Council whether on a small scale or a large scale.
