Shinzō Abe won the snap elections he called for the lower house on 22 October 2017. Despite her popularity, Tokyo's governor Yuriko Koike failed to convince the electorate to oust a prime minister in charge since December 2012. The newly created Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan became the main opposition force in the House of Representatives.

Since his election in 2015, Argentina's centre-right President, Mauricio Macri, has pursued sweeping domestic and foreign policy reforms, although his 'Let's Change' (Cambiemos) coalition of centre-right and centre-left parties holds only a minority of seats in the bicameral Congress. His presidency has marked a major shift from left-wing populism under his predecessors, Néstor Kirchner (2003-2007) and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (2007-2015), to economic neoliberalism.

Pogodba iz Nice je Evropsko unijo le deloma pripravila na pomembne razširitve proti vzhodu in jugu v letih 2004 in 2007. Konvencija o prihodnosti Evrope si je zato v odgovor na vprašanja, zastavljena v laekenski deklaraciji, prizadevala za pripravo nove pravne podlage za Unijo v obliki pogodbe o ustavi za Evropo.

Moreover, it tends to increase the advantage for the electoral lists gaining most votes to the detriment of those with fewer ...
