When it comes to party institutionalisation - at least for
entrepreneurial right-wing protest parties -- leadership matters!
That is the primary takeaway from this book. Of the hundreds of new
parties that have formed since the 1970s, many have fallen by the
wayside, but others have gone on to reach institution-hood. And
some of the latter have then met with decay and
de-institutionalisation. The experiences of the Progress Parties of
Denmark and Norway - both of which institutionalised and one of
which then de-institutionalised - shed important light on both
topics. While focusing particularly on those two cases, the authors
develop conceptual and theoretical frameworks that are broadly
applicable, as demonstrated in the final chapter and in an
elaborate appendix.
This edited collection builds directly upon the recently published
book by Harmel, Svasand, and Mjelde (Institutionalisation (and
De-Institutionalisation) of Right-Wing Protest Parties: The
Progress Parties in Denmark and Norway) and applies their
conceptual framework to a wide range of additional cases. Employing
a common conceptual framework throughout, the chapters cover a
broad range of cases and make important contributions toward
building theories on why some parties succeed in institutionalising
while others fail. The book is primarily about the status some
parties achieve as an 'institution', the means by which parties may
acquire that status, and some of the obstacles that stand in their
way.
