STUDY UNEQUAL DEMOCRACIES GREECE: WHO DOES(NOT) HAVE A SEAT IN PARLIAMENT? Jenny Mavropoulou February 2025 This study examines the social composition of the 2023 Hellenic parliament in terms of socio-de­mographic characteristics, such as age, gender, education level and socio-economic status. Women, younger people and lower-grade social classes are clearly underrepresented in the 2023 Hellenic parliament. In general, the current parliamen­tary composition is strongly skewed towards men, older MPs and consists of socioeconomi­cally high-level individuals. A series of measures on three different levels(e.g., policy­making process, political parties and political campaign) should be adopted to bridge the rep­resentation gap and achieve the so-called descriptive representa­tion of the Greek electorate.
