Chamber of Deputies ((フランス語:la Chambre des députés)) was the name given to several parliamentary bodies in France in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: * 1814–1848 during the Bourbon Restoration and the July Monarchy, the Chamber of Deputies was the Lower chamber of the French Parliament, elected by census suffrage. * 1875–1940 during the French Third Republic, the Chamber of Deputies was the legislative assembly of the French Parliament, elected by universal suffrage. When reunited with the French Senate at Versailles, the French Parliament was called the National Assembly (''Assemblée nationale'') and carried out the election of the President of the French Republic. Strictly speaking, ''députés'' translates as delegates, but the word is conventionally (mis)translated to its etymological cognate "deputies". The English word "deputy" is "''adjoint''" in French. ==During the Bourbon Restoration== Created by the Charter of 1814 and replacing the Corps législatif, which existed under the First French Empire, the Chamber of Deputies was composed of individuals elected by census suffrage. Its role was to discuss laws and, most importantly, to vote taxes. According to the Charter, deputies were elected for five years, with one-fifth renewed each year. Deputies needed to be 40 years old and to pay 1000 francs in direct contributions. Government ministers could be chosen from among the deputies, and this resulted in giving the Restoration government a slight, albeit minor, parliamentary and liberal character. During the Hundred Days (''les cent jours'') return of Napoleon I in 1815, under the terms of the Additional Act to the Constitutions of the Empire, the Chamber of Deputies was briefly replaced by a Chamber of Representatives (''Chambre des représentants''). This body was dissolved upon the entry of Coalition troops into Paris on 7 July. For the period 1815–1816, the (then) Ultra-royalist chamber was referred to as the ''Chambre introuvable''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chamber of Deputies (France)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
