"Principios e questões de philosophia politica (Vol. 2 of 2)" by António Cândido is a philosophical treatise written in the late 19th century. This work explores the complexities and practical implications of political suffrage, particularly contrasting the single-name and multi-name voting systems. The author delves into various socio-political theories and critiques surrounding the effectiveness of these electoral methods, presenting arguments for a more structured political representation. The opening of the text establishes the groundwork for a critical discussion on political suffrage, examining its historical evolution and contemporary challenges. It begins by addressing the contentious nature of universal suffrage, referencing key thinkers who voice skepticism about its efficacy. The author emphasizes the necessity of reforming electoral systems to ensure they reflect the genuine interests of society and reduce corruption and dependence on local influences. Ultimately, this early portion sets the stage for a deeper inquiry into the relationship between the electorate and its representatives, proposing that a proportional representation system could address many pressing political issues of the time.
