Governability, intended as effectiveness in decision-making, has been a key concept in the social sciences since the late 1970s. In contrast to political representation, governability is often conceived as the standard for evaluating electoral systems. The aim of this paper is (1) to analyze Italian electoral debates from a historical perspective in order (2) to assess critically the relationship between governability and representation in the current electoral system.
