ABSTRACT

The two chambers of the French parliament are known to be among the weakest in Europe since the Constitution of the Fifth Republic restricts their role. This weakness is an incentive for MPs to go local and adopt the constituency representation model. However, the magnitude of parliamentary renewal (416 newly elected members) following the 2017 elections combined with the entry into force of the law of 14 February 2014 prohibiting the combination of a deputy’s mandate with a local executive function disrupt, at least circumstancially, the rules of the game. Have these changes contributed (or not) to transform the style of representation of current deputies, especially online? In this article, we identify two opposing styles of representation used online by the deputies elected in 2017: the constituency model and the trustee model (coupled with the representation of self-model). These results are discussed according to the French context.

摘要

众所周知，法国议会的两院是欧洲最弱的议会之一，因为第五共和国宪法限制了它们的作用。这一弱点促使国会议员走向地方并采用选区代表模式。However, the magnitude of parliamentary renewal (416 newly elected members) following the 2017 elections combined with the entry into force of the law of 14 February 2014 prohibiting the combination of a deputy's mandate with a local executive function disrupt, at least circumstancially, the rules游戏的。这些变化是否有助于（或没有）改变现任代表的代表风格，尤其是在线代表？In this article, we identify two opposing styles of representation used online by the deputies elected in 2017: 选区模型和受托人模型（加上自我模型的表示）。这些结果是根据法国语境进行讨论的。
