This book represents the first comprehensive study of the evolution
of parties and party systems in all nine democratic European states
with less than one million inhabitants. As small political units
have for long been considered to be most conducive to stable
democracy, this volume analyses the actual role of political
parties and partisan competition in the operation of modern
democracy in those European microstates. Drawing on the crucial
contribution of leading country experts in the field, it provides
rich, systematic contextualized knowledge on these lesser-known
cases. It further contributes to the mainstreaming of small state
research in social science studies by comparing the experience of
party politics in European microstates with that of larger
countries in the same region of the world. This volume will be of
key interest to scholars and students of party systems and
political parties, elections and democracy, small states, European
politics and more broadly of comparative politics.
