Abstract (EN): In this paper, we apply the following four power indices to the Portuguese Parliament: Shapley-Shubik index, Banzhaf index, Deegan-Packel index and Public Good Index. We also present the main concepts related with simple games and discuss the features of each power index by means of their axiomatic characterizations.
