Political Parties and Electoral Systems

CEU Political Science Journal is a peer review publication established at the beginning of 2006 within the academic community of Central European University, Budapest. It is primarily targeted to promote the work of graduate students and young scholars with a special interest in the CEE space, welcoming also valuable contributions outside this focus.

The Journal accepts now submissions for volume 3, Issue 1, on the topic of “Political Parties and Electoral Systems”.

Among the analyzed aspects should be the following: Is there a difference in the role and the functions of parties in old and new democracies? Do political parties have an influence at European level? What are the causes for the low level of trust in political parties in CEE states? Is there an appropriate electoral system for promoting certain types of parties? Is there a future for extremist and ethnic parties in Europe? Is there a relationship between party organizations and electoral systems? What are the factors that influence the changes in electoral systems?
The Journal contains a special Work in Progress section designed to present research still under finalization and PhD research proposals. Moreover, the section of book reviews approaches the relevant books in Political Science and related fields.
