Types of party systems
One-party system: a system in which a single political party has the right to form the government, usually based on the existing constitution, or where only one party has the exclusive control over political power.
Dominant-party system: a system where there is "a category of parties/political organizations that have successively won election victories and whose future defeat cannot be envisaged or is unlikely for the foreseeable future".
Two party system: a system where only two parties or alliances, typically placed either side of the center, have a realistic chance of forming a majority. Other parties are very minor or solely regional. Example: The United States
Multi-party system: a system in which multiple political parties have the capacity to gain control of government offices, separately or in coalition. Example: India.
Non-partisan system: a system of government or organization such that universal and periodic elections take place without reference to political parties.
