## Preparation of data
First, you need to download all records of the current legislative period.
```r
fetch_all("../records/") # path to directory where records should be stored
```
Second, those `.xml` files, need to be parsed into `R` `tibbles`. This is accomplished by:
```r
read_all("../records/") %>% repair() -> res
```
We also used `repair` to fix a bunch of formatting issues in the records.
For development purposes, we load the tables from csv files.
```{r}
res <- read_from_csv('../inst/csv/')
```
and unpack our tibbles
```{r}
comments <- res$comments
speeches <- res$speeches
speaker <- res$speaker
talks <- res$talks
```
Bevor we can do our analysis, we have to assign a gender to our politicans. We do this
by reading the gender from the master data of all members of parliament, which is
fetched from bundestag.de.
```{r}
xml_get <- function(node, name) {
res <- xml_text(xml_find_all(node, name))
if (length(res) == 0) NA_character_
else res
}
x <- read_xml("../inst/masterdata.xml")
mdbs <- xml_find_all(x, "MDB")
ids <- c()
genders <- c()
for (mdb in mdbs) {
xml_get(mdb, "ID") -> mdb_id
xml_find_first(mdb, "BIOGRAFISCHE_ANGABEN") %>%
xml_get("GESCHLECHT") ->
mdb_gender
ids <- c(ids, mdb_id)
genders <- c(genders, if (mdb_gender == "männlich") "male" else "female")
}
gender <- tibble(id = ids, gender = genders)
speaker_with_gender <- left_join(res$speaker, gender)
```
## Analyse
First, let's look at the relative distribution of the sexes throughout the whole Bundestag.
```{r}
speaker_with_gender %>%
select(gender) %>%
group_by(gender) %>%
summarise("count" = n()) %>%
filter(gender %in% c("male", "female")) %>%
mutate(portion = 100*count/sum(count)) ->
plot1
bp <- ggplot(plot1, aes(x = "", y = portion, fill = gender))+
geom_bar(width = 1, stat = "identity")
pie <- bp + coord_polar("y", start=0)
pie +
scale_fill_manual(values=c("pink", "blue")) +
ggtitle("Relative distribution of sexes") +
xlab("") +
ylab("")
```
Next, we look at the individual distributions between men and women in the different fractions.
```{r, fig.width=7}
speaker_with_gender %>%
group_by(fraction) %>%
summarize(n = n()) ->
fraction_size
speaker_with_gender %>%
filter(gender=="female") %>%
group_by(fraction) %>%
summarize(n_female = n()) %>%
left_join(fraction_size) %>%
mutate(q = n_female/n) -> women_per_fraction
bar_plot_fractions(women_per_fraction, x_variable=fraction, y_variable=q, title="Frauenanteil nach Partei")
```
Prepared with this knowledge, we can now analyse the relative amount of speeches by gender and fraction.
```{r, fig.width=7}
speaker_with_gender %>% transmute(speaker_id = id, gender, fraction) -> simple_speaker_with_gender
speeches %>%
transmute(id, speaker_id = speaker) %>%
inner_join(simple_speaker_with_gender) %>%
group_by(fraction) %>%
summarize(speeches=n()) ->
fraction_speeches_size
speeches %>%
transmute(id, speaker_id = speaker) %>%
inner_join(simple_speaker_with_gender) %>%
filter(gender=='female') %>%
group_by(fraction) %>%
summarize(female_speeches=n()) %>%
left_join(fraction_speeches_size) %>%
left_join(women_per_fraction) %>%
mutate(q_speeches = female_speeches/speeches) -> speech_distribution
#bar_plot_fractions(speech_distribution, x_variable=fraction, y_variable=q_speeches, title="Redeanteil Frauen nach Partei")
party_order <- factor(c("Fraktionslos", "AfD&Fraktionslos",
"DIE LINKE", "BÜNDNIS 90/DIE GRÜNEN", "SPD", "CDU/CSU",
"FDP", "AfD", NA_character_))
speech_distribution %>%
mutate("Frauenanteil" = q, "Redenanteil Frauen" = q_speeches) %>%
pivot_longer(c(Frauenanteil, "Redenanteil Frauen"), "type") %>%
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")
```
For comparison, let's analyze the total differences in the amount of speeches given.
```{r}
speeches %>%
group_by(speaker) %>%
summarize(n = n()) %>%
ungroup() %>%
arrange(-n) %>%
join_speaker(res) %>%
left_join(gender, by=c("speaker"="id")) %>%
group_by(gender) %>%
summarise(absolute=sum(n)) %>%
filter(gender %in% c("female", "male")) %>%
mutate(absolute2=absolute/sum(absolute)) %>%
mutate(portion=c(0.32, 0.68)) %>%
mutate(relative=absolute*(1-portion)) %>%
mutate(relative2=relative/sum(relative)) ->
plot3
```
At first lets take a look at the absolute difference in the amount of speeches by the two sexes.
```{r,fig.width=7}
barplot(plot3$absolute2,
ylab = "amount of speeches",
main = "Absolute comparison of speech shares",
las = 1,
names.arg = c("women", "men"),
col = c("pink", "darkblue"),
font.main = 4,
cex.axis = 0.7)
```
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.
```{r, fig.width=7}
barplot(plot3$relative2,
ylab = "amount of speeches",
main = "Relative comparison of speech shares",
las = 1,
names.arg = c("women", "men"),
col = c("pink", "darkblue"),
font.main = 4,
cex.axis = 0.7)
```
