Why do some parties formed by social movements develop top-down
structures while others stay more open and responsive to their
social bases? The first rigorous comparative study of
movement-based parties, this book shows not only how movements can
form parties but also how movements contribute to parties' internal
politics and shape organizational party models over the long term.
Although the existing literature argues that movement-based parties
will succumb to professionalization and specialization, Anria shows
that this is not inevitable or preordained through an in-depth
examination of the unusual and counterintuitive development of
Bolivia's MAS. Anria then compares the evolution of the MAS with
that of other parties formed by social movements, including
Brazil's PT and Uruguay's FA. In a region where successful new
parties of any type have been rare, these three parties are
remarkable for their success. Yet, despite their similar origins,
they differ sharply in their organizational models.
