Question

What are the various changes to political parties

Answer 1

A political party is an organized group of people, often with common views, who come together to contest elections and hold power in government. The party agrees on some proposed policies and programmes, with a view to promoting the collective good or furthering their supporters' interests.

While there is some international commonality in the way political parties are recognized and in how they operate, there are often many differences, and some are significant. Many political parties have an ideological core, but some do not, and many represent ideologies very different from their ideology at the time the party was founded. Many countries, such as Germany and India, have several significant political parties, and some nations have one-party systems, such as China and Cuba. The United States is in practice a two-party systembut with many smaller parties also participating and a high degree of autonomy for individual candidates.

Answer 2

There are three general, main types of party systems, single or dominant party systems, two-party systems, or multi-party systems. Single party systems tend to be indicative of authoritarian regimes since the dominance of a single party means the repression of all other political opposition.
