Abstract: (7660 Views)
The electoral campaign and the publicity, which are exercised during the election season by the candidates or their parties, are considered as the major subjects in the political systems based on the universal vote.
Islamic Republic of Iran and the Fifth Republic of France both pay specific attention to the elections and have developed certain electoral codes concerning the electoral campaign.
In this study, we defined four variables as our major categorization and tried to elaborate the electoral rules of both countries according to these variables:
1. Preparing the context for the candidates and their parties for presenting themselves and their programs.
2. Assuring a relative equality for all candidates to enjoy equal opportunities in the electoral campaign.
3. Preventing violation of the citizens, rights during the electoral activities.
4. Preventing the wasting and also the candidates’dependency on the interest groups and external powers.
According, it was concluded that the electoral codes of both countries are corresponding with the proper situations of each country but the French rules are more comprehensive to assure the regularity of the elections.
