Abstract

This thesis aims at searching for the historical process of the revision of the Korean national assembly members election act. This thesis deals with the two important foundations of electoral system; constituting the fair representation and securing the stability of political situation. The first is studied with the conception of proportion between the percent of parties votes and seats inducing from the principle of equitable election. The second is studied with the problem of establishment of the two party system with relation to electoral system from the viewpoint of the 'parteienstatt'. And this thesis also deals with the problem and reformatives of the National Assemblymen election system in Korea. From the viewpoint of the above topics, the historical development of the election system in Korea is divided into four parts : the 'one' member district system of the first. second. third. sixth Republic ; the Yuijeonghye National Assemblymen election system of the Fourth Republic ; the 'two' member district system of the Fifth Republic ; the mixed system of local constituencies and national constituencies. Comparing the two, system the 'two' number district system is excellent, but it is not absolute from the viewpoint of the fair representation. The electoral system is the product of bargaining among political parties and it has contributed to predominant party system in Korea. Here, the 'One' member distric system and the 'two' number district system the much alike. The 'Two' member district system is criticized functioning the opposition parties split, related to the phenomenon Ye-chon-Ya-Do " (The government party is predominant in the country and the opposition parties in the city). But, in any aspect, the 'One' member district system a little contributed to establishment of two party system. Finally, it is suggested that the reform of the electoral system be preceded for the realization of the peaceful replacement of political power. It is thus hoped that German electoral system - the party system of the double voting system and the proportional representation will be deeply examined and that the synthetic electoral law will be established to establish democratic electoral culture.
