This book can be seen as two different books. The first is a
history of political parties in ten nations (with the sections on
France and Germany limited to specific periods). The second is an
inquiry into the reasons for the different party systems that are
found when applying similar proportional rules. In the specific
countries that are analyzed, the authors put to the forefront
community ties (specifically labor unions, some religious
organizations and at times language) that intervene in the apparent
political affiliation of a considerable number of voters. In
addition, the authors add an explanation of the rise of new parties
that hinges largely on whether or not alternatives exist that have
not been tainted by having been part of the government or having
been closely part of failed political institutions.
This is a history of political parties in ten nations (with the
sections on France and Germany limited to specific period), and a
critique of the existing literature that emphasizes the importance
of electoral rules as determinative of political party systems.
