The effect of multiple-office holding on the parliamentary activity of MPs in the Czech Republic
Original language description
This article deals with multiple-office holdings by legislators in the Czech Republic during the VI. Chamber of Deputies, 2010-2013. First, both positive and negative theoretical consequences of simultaneously holding multiple political offices are depicted. Then, a uniquely detailed database of member of parliament-periods is constructed for quantitative research. Multiple-office holding is demonstrated to be a frequent behaviour among Czech deputies. The analysis results suggest that some of the deputies' parliamentary performances were influenced both positively and negatively. Multiple-office holders probably save time on certain activities, and focus more strongly on others. Different mandates held simultaneously by deputies affect their activity differently; local and non-executive mandates' effects tend to be positive compared with regional and executive mandates' effects.
