This book, first published in 1987, analysed the state and changing
nature of political opposition in Western Europe at the time. For
each country covered, it discusses the concept of opposition and
the approach adopted by opposition parties. It explores the
institutional framework that was in place at the time, the
electoral support for opposition, attitudes towards opposition and
the criteria for the success of opposition parties. It shows how
opposition had changed in nature as a result of both voter
re-alignments and also because some interest groups have engaged
directly in opposition activities, rather than working through
opposition parties as was done previously, thereby increasing the
scope of extra parliamentary opposition. Opposition is a
fundamental element in democratic politics, and this book therefore
throws considerable light on the whole range of political activity
in the countries covered. This title will be of interest to
students of politics.
