The House of the People or Wolesi Jirga ((パシュトー語:ولسي جرګه)), abbreviated WJ, is the lower house of the bicameral National Assembly of Afghanistan, alongside the House of Elders. The House of the People is the chamber that bears the greater burden of lawmaking in the country, as with the House of Commons in the Westminster model. It consists of 249 delegates directly elected by single non-transferable vote (SNTV).〔(【引用サイトリンク】archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20051027224204/http://www.unama-afg.org/news/_parelection/_factsheets/_english/JEMBS%20POD%20FS%20SNTV%20v11%202005%2005%2026%20ENG.pdf )〕 Members are elected by district and serve for five years. The constitution guarantees at least 64 delegates to be female. Kuchi nomads elect 10 representatives through a Single National Constituency. The House of the People has the primary responsibility for making and ratifying laws and approving the actions of the president. The first elections in decades were held only in September 2005, four years after the fall of the Muslim fundamentalist Taliban regime, still under international (mainly UN and NATO) supervision. The 2010 Wolesi Jirga elections were held on September 18, 2010.〔(March 25, 2010: IEC Press Release on 2010 Wolesi Jirga Election Timeline )〕 ==Elections== (詳細はpresidential election, elections were postponed.〔("Afghanistan parliamentary election postponed " )〕 There were more than 2,500 candidates.〔(2010 Wolesi Jirga Candidate List )〕 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「House of the People (Afghanistan)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
