The '''2001 Italian general election''' was held in [[Italy]] on 13 May 2001 to elect members of the [[Chamber of Deputies (Italy)|Chamber of Deputies]] and the [[Senate of the Republic (Italy)|Senate of the Republic]]. The election was won by the centre-right coalition [[House of Freedoms]] led by [[Silvio Berlusconi]], defeating [[Francesco Rutelli]], former [[mayor of Rome]], and leader of the centre-left coalition [[The Olive Tree (Italy)|The Olive Tree]], and rising back to power after Berlusconi's first victory in the [[1994 Italian general election]].

== Electoral system ==
The election was regulated by the [[Italian electoral law of 1993|Mattarella law]] of 1993, also known as "Mattarellum".

The intricate electoral system, called ''[[scorporo]]'', provided 75% of the seats on the Chamber of Deputies (the Lower House) as elected by [[first-past-the-post]] system, whereas the remaining 25% was assigned on [[proportional representation]] with a minimum threshold of 4%. 

The method used for the Senate was even more complicated: 75% of seats by uninominal method, and 25% by a special proportional method that assigned the remaining seats to minority parties. Formally, these were examples of [[Mixed-member majoritarian representation|mixed-member majoritarian]] systems with partial [[Compensation (electoral systems)|compensation]].

== General election ==

=== Campaign ===
For this election Berlusconi ran again for Prime Minister as leader of the [[centre-right]] [[House of Freedoms]] ({{langx|it|La Casa delle Libertà}}), which included the [[Forza Italia]], [[National Alliance (Italy)|National Alliance]], [[Lega Nord|Northern League]], [[Christian Democratic Centre]], [[United Christian Democrats]] and other minor parties. The candidate for Prime Minister of the [[centre-left]] [[The Olive Tree (Italy)|Olive Tree]] ({{langx|it|L'Ulivo}}) was [[Francesco Rutelli]], former [[mayor of Rome]].

On the television interviews programme ''[[Porta a Porta]]'', during the last days of the electoral campaign, Berlusconi created a powerful impression on the public by undertaking to sign a so-called ''Contratto con gli Italiani'' ({{langx|en|[[Contract with the Italians]]}}), an idea copied outright by his advisor Luigi Crespi from the [[Newt Gingrich]]'s [[Contract with America]] introduced six weeks before the 1994 US Congressional election,<ref>{{cite book | last1 = Gingrich | first1 = Newt | author-link1 = Newt Gingrich | last2 = Armey | first2 = Dick | author-link2 = Dick Armey | title = [[Contract With America]]: The Bold Plan | year = 1994 }}</ref> which was widely considered to be a creative masterstroke in his 2001 campaign bid for prime ministership. In this solemn agreement, Berlusconi claimed his commitment on improving several aspects of the Italian [[economy]] and life. Firstly, he undertook to simplify the complex tax system by introducing just two tax rates (33% for those earning over 100,000 euros, and 23% for anyone earning less than that figure: anyone earning less than 11,000 euros a year would not be taxed); secondly, he promised to halve the unemployment rate; thirdly, he undertook to finance and develop a massive new public works programme. Fourthly, he promised to raise the minimum monthly pension rate to 516 euros; and fifthly, he would suppress the crime wave by introducing police officers to patrol all local zones and areas in Italy's major cities.<ref>{{cite book | last = Ricolfi | first = Luca | author-link = Luca Ricolfi | title = Dossier Italia: a che punto è il 'contratto con gli italiani | publisher = Il mulino | year = 2005 }}</ref> Berlusconi undertook to refrain from putting himself up for re-election in 2006 if he failed to honour at least four of these five promises.
