Swiss parliament minutes scraping

Is the Swiss parliament really useful ? Once elected, what are our councilors talking about ? Who is answering to who ?

Goal of this project is to answer some of these questions and many more. To do this, we are planning to:

  1. Scrape the parliament website in order to retrieve councilors bio, topics discussed and minutes
  2. Structure them in session, intervention (with rank/order), author and text

In order to perform some analysis, as

  1. person vs. vocabulary
  2. dialogue order
  3. gender

Our github.

Data

Raw data are available as JSON files, each file covering one session. Format is the following :
