  15. ```{r setup}
  16. library(hateimparlament)
  17. library(dplyr)

  19. library(stringr)
  20. library(tidyr)
  21. library(xml2)
  22. ```
  23. ## Preparation of data
  24. First, you need to download all records of the current legislative period.
  25. ```r
  26. fetch_all("../records/") # path to directory where records should be stored
  27. ```
  28. Second, those `.xml` files, need to be parsed into `R` `tibbles`. This is accomplished by:
  29. ```r
  30. read_all("../records/") %>% repair() -> res
  31. ```
  32. We also used `repair` to fix a bunch of formatting issues in the records.
  33. For development purposes, we only fetch records if they are not already
  34. stored as csv files:
  35. ```{r}
  36. res <- read_from_csv_or_fetch('../inst/')
  37. ```
  38. and unpack our tibbles
  39. ```{r}
  40. comments <- res$comments
  41. speeches <- res$speeches
  42. speaker <- res$speaker
  43. talks <- res$talks
  44. ```
  45. Bevor we can do our analysis, we have to assign a gender to our politicans. We do this
  46. by reading the gender from the master data of all members of parliament, which is
  47. fetched from bundestag.de.
  48. ```{r}
  49. xml_get <- function(node, name) {
  50. res <- xml_text(xml_find_all(node, name))
  51. if (length(res) == 0) NA_character_
  52. else res
  53. }
  54. x <- read_xml("../inst/masterdata.xml")
  55. mdbs <- xml_find_all(x, "MDB")
  56. ids <- c()
  57. genders <- c()
  58. for (mdb in mdbs) {
  59. xml_get(mdb, "ID") -> mdb_id
  60. xml_find_first(mdb, "BIOGRAFISCHE_ANGABEN") %>%
  61. xml_get("GESCHLECHT") ->
  62. mdb_gender
  63. ids <- c(ids, mdb_id)
  64. genders <- c(genders, if (mdb_gender == "männlich") "male" else "female")
  65. }
  66. gender <- tibble(id = ids, gender = genders)
  67. speaker_with_gender <- left_join(res$speaker, gender)
  68. ```
  69. ## Analyse
  70. First, let's look at the relative distribution of the sexes throughout the whole Bundestag.
  71. ```{r}
  72. speaker_with_gender %>%
  73. select(gender) %>%
  74. group_by(gender) %>%
  75. summarise("count" = n()) %>%
  76. filter(gender %in% c("male", "female")) %>%
  77. mutate(portion = 100*count/sum(count)) ->
  78. plot1
  79. bp <- ggplot(plot1, aes(x = "", y = portion, fill = gender))+
  80. geom_bar(width = 1, stat = "identity")
  81. pie <- bp + coord_polar("y", start=0)
  82. pie +
  83. scale_fill_manual(values=c("pink", "blue")) +
  84. ggtitle("Relative distribution of sexes") +
  85. xlab("") +
  86. ylab("")
  87. ```
  88. Next, we look at the individual distributions between men and women in the different fractions.
  89. ```{r, fig.width=7}
  90. speaker_with_gender %>%
  91. group_by(fraction) %>%
  92. summarize(n = n()) ->
  93. fraction_size
  94. speaker_with_gender %>%
  95. filter(gender=="female") %>%
  96. group_by(fraction) %>%
  97. summarize(n_female = n()) %>%
  98. left_join(fraction_size) %>%
  99. mutate(q = n_female/n) -> women_per_fraction
  100. bar_plot_fractions(women_per_fraction, x_variable=fraction, y_variable=q, title="Frauenanteil nach Partei")
  101. ```
  102. Prepared with this knowledge, we can now analyse the relative amount of speeches by gender and fraction.
  103. ```{r, fig.width=7}
  104. speaker_with_gender %>% transmute(speaker_id = id, gender, fraction) -> simple_speaker_with_gender
  105. speeches %>%
  106. transmute(id, speaker_id = speaker) %>%
  107. inner_join(simple_speaker_with_gender) %>%
  108. group_by(fraction) %>%
  109. summarize(speeches=n()) ->
  110. fraction_speeches_size
  111. speeches %>%
  112. transmute(id, speaker_id = speaker) %>%
  113. inner_join(simple_speaker_with_gender) %>%
  114. filter(gender=='female') %>%
  115. group_by(fraction) %>%
  116. summarize(female_speeches=n()) %>%
  117. left_join(fraction_speeches_size) %>%
  118. left_join(women_per_fraction) %>%
  119. mutate(q_speeches = female_speeches/speeches) -> speech_distribution
  120. #bar_plot_fractions(speech_distribution, x_variable=fraction, y_variable=q_speeches, title="Redeanteil Frauen nach Partei")
  121. party_order <- factor(c("Fraktionslos", "AfD&Fraktionslos",
  122. "DIE LINKE", "BÜNDNIS 90/DIE GRÜNEN", "SPD", "CDU/CSU",
  123. "FDP", "AfD", NA_character_))
  124. speech_distribution %>%
  125. mutate("Frauenanteil" = q, "Redenanteil Frauen" = q_speeches) %>%
  126. pivot_longer(c(Frauenanteil, "Redenanteil Frauen"), "type") %>%
  127. ggplot(aes(x=factor(fraction, levels = party_order), y=value, fill=factor(type, levels = factor(c("Frauenanteil", "Redenanteil Frauen"))))) + scale_fill_manual(values= c("Frauenanteil"="gray", "Redenanteil Frauen"="red")) + coord_flip() + geom_bar(stat="identity", position="dodge") + labs(fill="Kategorie")
  128. ```
  129. For comparison, let's analyze the total differences in the amount of speeches given.
  130. ```{r}
  131. speeches %>%
  132. group_by(speaker) %>%
  133. summarize(n = n()) %>%
  134. ungroup() %>%
  135. arrange(-n) %>%
  136. join_speaker(res) %>%
  137. left_join(gender, by=c("speaker"="id")) %>%
  138. group_by(gender) %>%
  139. summarise(absolute=sum(n)) %>%
  140. filter(gender %in% c("female", "male")) %>%
  141. mutate(absolute2=absolute/sum(absolute)) %>%
  142. mutate(portion=c(0.32, 0.68)) %>%
  143. mutate(relative=absolute*(1-portion)) %>%
  144. mutate(relative2=relative/sum(relative)) ->
  145. plot3
  146. ```
  147. At first lets take a look at the absolute difference in the amount of speeches by the two sexes.
  148. ```{r,fig.width=7}
  149. barplot(plot3$absolute2,
  150. ylab = "amount of speeches",
  151. main = "Absolute comparison of speech shares",
  152. las = 1,
  153. names.arg = c("women", "men"),
  154. col = c("pink", "darkblue"),
  155. font.main = 4,
  156. cex.axis = 0.7)
  157. ```
  158. Since there are more men represented in the German Bundestag, we now consider the relative proportions of speeches, depending on the ratio of men and women.
  159. ```{r, fig.width=7}
  160. barplot(plot3$relative2,
  161. ylab = "amount of speeches",
  162. main = "Relative comparison of speech shares",
  163. las = 1,
  164. names.arg = c("women", "men"),
  165. col = c("pink", "darkblue"),
  166. font.main = 4,
  167. cex.axis = 0.7)
  168. ```
