In this study, the Observatory of Parity between Women and Men (replaced by the High Council for Equality between Women and Men in 2013) reviews different voting systems in force in France with a view to answering the following questions: How is the parity law implemented? What are its effects on the French political landscape? What improvements are possible? The document suggests analysing the progress of equal access of women and men to political mandates in the light of cantonal, municipal, regional, European and Senate elections from 1979 to 2011.
