...My highest party match is the single-interest group or party such as women’s equality, transhumanist, and working families on most political issues. However, the major party that came into the fourth highest match is the Democratic party, which came from the idea of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. One of the most major component of the platform of this party is advocating social and economic equality, along with the welfare state. Which I further support because the most important issues to me are social, domestic policy, and environmental. Significantly, these three issues have a strong relationship with the top three rankings of my political party. Furthermore, social issues play a bigger role in this modern democratic world, where more...

...There was a time when there was only one political party was during the year 1787 where this group went under the name of the Federalists. This group was created by Hamilton as well as other members in order to create a new central government that they thought would prove to be stronger. However this shortly changed because, “In 1796, anti-Federalists gathered around Jefferson” (The Origins and Functions of Political Parties). Instead, this group believed in a national government that would be stronger than the central government. These groups each developed separately from the people that supported them, with the Federalists being backed up by people such as business men and bankers. This is drastically different because Jefferson’s party...

...George Washington warns against the spirit of parties as he believes that this would separate the country. He emphasizes on the fact that parties are created to separate people, as they would be focused on their needs rather than what would be beneficial for all individuals in the country. He further adds that political parties promote ill-will in people, and they compromise the country’s future. The situation is far worse today as compared to the period of George Washington’s retirement. In America, the country has been divided into various political parties today, and each party advocates for different regulations and policies. For example, the current administration has established a travel ban on countries of Muslim origin. This separates...

...Good morning ladies and gentlemen, On behalf of Gary Johnson, representative of the Libertarian political party, which represents a strong stance on opposition of any government interference into their personal, family, and business decisions, we want to offer the opportunity of growth this upcoming Presidential election. As Libertarians, we believe all Americans should be free to pursue their interests in ways that work for them individually without harming other people in the process. Johnson represents the interest of every American by taking a stand on important issues and offering those opinions to the general public. Johnsons morals and core values fit those of our own Catholic beliefs. Johnson served as governor for New Mexico as a Republican for two years. New Mexico is predominantly democratic, so this was a difficult position for him to fulfill while pleasing the citizens. Johnson aided New Mexico throughout his term by never raising taxes, vetoing many bills, and balancing their budget-- creating a surplus of a billion dollars. In his free time he enjoys skiing, biking, and all things outdoors....

...Political Studies (1998), XLVI, 572±588 Parties, Party Systems, and Satisfaction with Democratic Performance in The New Europe CHRISTOPHER J. ANDERSON1 Introduction Political parties and the party systems they form constitute the major channels of interest aggregation and citizen input in contemporary democracies. They are the vehicles through which political elites supply policy alternatives, and they constitute the major route for citizens to organize the demand for such alternatives.2 Parties also play a crucial role in the nature of democratic governance because they help legitimize the state. After all, free and fair elections in which parties compete for oce are a prime criterion for whether a system should be considered a democracy in the ®rst place. Outside of elections, political parties also have long been the most important mediating institutions between citizens and the state, in particular as parties have taken on the roles as simultaneous agents both of the state and its citizens.3 While virtually all democracies have political parties that compete for oce, political systems dier in a number of important ways with regard to how they go about channeling inputs or providing policy alternatives, and with regard to the roles they assign parties in this process. Moreover, and perhaps most importantly, the ways in which political institutions condition the formation, functioning, and development of political parties and party systems varies as ...

...Introduction Amid government shut downs and Congress passing fewer legislations, many seem to believe that the government is not working. Political scientists, Hetherington and Rudolph set out to find an explanation on exactly why Washington “won’t work.” Hetherington and Rudolph’s theorize that due to the increase in partisan polarization there is a decrease in political trust. The lack of political trust is making it impractical to construct a public consensus and nothing is getting done. Political trust is imperative because it is the backbone of stability and longevity of a government. Additionally, Hetherington and Rudolph point out that the polarization in Washington is not really based on ideology, but instead on feelings about the...

...against illegitimate regimes. The voicing of differing views and political debate over policies is a healthy feature of any modern democracy. As the Human Development Report 2002 notes: Changes in the world have shifted human development priorities and made political freedom, participation and collective action much more important as public policy issues.... Open space for free political debate and the diverse ways in which people can express their views are the essence democratic life and are what make decision making work in democracies In this context, the right to call ‘a hartal’ -- a particular form of protest used in Bangladesh and in other parts of South Asia -- could be viewed is a legitimate democratic right. However, when this right impinges on the rights of individuals to earn a living and to go about their daily lives in peace and security, a situation of ‘conflict of competing rights’ arises. Hartals are often called in ‘the name of the people’, but it is ordinary people whose movements are restricted, property endangered, and progress curbed. Children miss school, the sick miss treatment, and business miss targets. In addition, the reality in Bangladesh is that the success of hartals often rests on coercion, or even the use of payment to ‘hired hands’ by hartal organisers to mobilise support. At the same time, hartals can also be viewed a ‘symptom’ of the frustration of opposition parties at the lack of space for them to play a constructive role in democratic...

...Democratisation in Turkey: The Role of Political Parties, Brussels: P.I.E.-Peter Lang, 2004. Comparative studies on regime changes in Southern Europe and Latin America have shown the central role that stable and strong party systems play in the consolidation of democracy. Although Turkish political parties and the party system have received considerable scholarly attention, their impact on the country’s democratization process has not been systematically examined. Huri Tursan’s book seeks to fill this gap in the literature on contemporary Turkish politics. A modified version of the author’s doctoral dissertation written at the European University Institute in Florence, the study describes the historical evolution of political parties, with particular focus on developments concerning party politics since Turkey’s transition from an authoritarian one-party regime to a multi-party system in the late 1940s. The bulk of the book analyzes the changing electoral fortunes of the individual parties over the past five decades, the impact of the breakdowns of democracy through military interventions in 1960, 1971, and 1980 on party competition, and trends in the party system over the years. The analysis of the changes in the party system concerning volatility, fragmentation, and polarization constitute the book’s main empirical contribution. The picture that emerges from Hursan’s study is that of a party system which lacks strong and cohesive parties and which has experienced protracted periods...

We also recommend watching Karl Marx & Friedrich Engels: The Communist Manifesto and Balcony Scene in Romeo and Juliet: Summary, Analysis & Quiz The Communist Manifesto The Communist Manifesto is a brief publication that declares the arguments and platform of the communist party. It was was written in 1847 by political theorists Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, and was commissioned by the Communist League, a political party based in England. Summary The Communist Manifesto was published in 1848, and consists of a preamble and four chapters, which are summarized below: Bourgeois and Proletarians In this chapter, Marx famously states 'The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles'. The chapter lays out the position that the bourgeois, through competition and private ownership of land, are forever exploiting and oppressing the proletariat (working class). Marx then states that the system always results in class conflict and revolution, and should be replaced by communism -- a society without class distinctions. Proletarians and Communists This chapter explains the relationship between the communist party and other working parties, stating that the communist parties would not organize against them. The chapter also declares the intention of the party to focus on the interests of the proletariat as whole...

...A TERM PAPER ON POLITICAL MARKETING INTRODUCTION Political marketing is a marketing designed to influence consumers about political issues, particular candidates for public office, or public issues. Although political marketing uses many of the same techniques that other forms of marketing do, it is actually used to promote a concept or an idea, rather than a specific product or service, and to motivate people to vote for that idea. The word “Political Marketing” emerge from the key words ‘politics’ and ‘marketing’. Politics simply means an activity which is concerned with governing a society or country. It has to do with the government or public affairs of a community or a state (that is a particular boundary). While, Marketing is a process of planning and executing the conceptions, pricing, promotion and distribution of ideas, goods and services, to create exchange that satisfy the individual and organizational objective. Marketing is often described as “selling of product”, but the fact is that marketing entails more than this. Kotler (2001) offers a definition that presents a comprehensive meaning of marketing as “a process by which individuals and groups, obtain what they need and want through creating, offering, and freely exchanging products and services of value with others”. The American Marketing Association (1995) also described Marketing as “the process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion, and distribution of ideas, goods, and services to...
