Description
Political parties are an established feature of contemporary democratic politics.
For decades, parties have organised government, competed in elections and influenced the way society is run.
Yet despite their importance, the status of political parties in society is presently unclear.
On the one hand lambasted as duplicitous, self-interested, dogmatic organisations that are in decline, on the other they have been proclaimed as resurgent bodies that are attracting new levels of membership and support. The reimagined party offers unprecedented insight into public views of parties in Britain.
Exploring public perceptions and desires, Katharine Dommett finds that far from rejecting parties, there is ongoing support for party democracy.
The book presents evidence of a desire for change in party ethos, introducing the idea of the re-imagined party to explore perceptions of party representation, participation, governance and conduct.
Using a mixed-method approach, and presenting hitherto unseen data, the book casts new light on citizen’s desires for parties today. -- .
