Political parties in the developing world often face serious
electoral crises; from one election to the next, parties can be
decisively voted out of national office. What happens to a party
that experiences this kind of voter rejection? The literature
suggests it will disappear, leaving the party system vulnerable to
the inexperience of new political actors. The Fates of Political
Parties offers a more nuanced perspective: focusing on a number of
individual Latin American countries as well as the region as a
whole, it identifies considerable variation regarding how parties
survive and even revive after an electoral crisis. The book
revitalizes the study of parties as complex entities that rely on a
potentially diverse set of resources to remain active in politics.
It demonstrates that parties can be remarkably enduring
institutions; surviving and reviving parties represent instances of
institutional stability. Where they endure, those parties can
sustain competition and strengthen the democratic regime.
