  • The Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Group: Towards an Inevitable Decline? Bruno Marino 22 April 20141
    The Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Group: Towards an inevitable decline? Bruno Marino 22 April 20141 The Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Group (from now on, ALDE Group) is the third most numerous group within the European Par- liament, after the European People’s Party group and the Party of European Socialists group. The ALDE group is made up by Members of the European Parliament (from now on, MEPs) coming from two different European par- ties, i.e., the European Democratic Party and the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Party. The liberal democratic group2 has had a very interesting historical devel- opment. In the 1960s, after the exit of the Gaullist MEPs, the liberal group formed within the Common Assembly of the European Coal and Steel Com- munity started a long path of change and inclusion of new members as the European integration went on. Analysing the history of the liberal democratic group also means analysing the change of its name. From 1979 until 1985 within the European Parliament, there was the Lib- eral and Democratic Group, in which there were different parties, such as the French UDF, the Italian PRI and PLI, or the German FDP. From 1985 until the mid-1990s, the liberal democratic group changed its name, becoming the Liberal and Democratic Reformist Group. In this period, parties coming from different countries (like the Portuguese Social Democratic Party) joined the group. In 1994, there was another change; the Group of the European Liberal 1 This article was originally published in Italian on the CISE website.

  • Dynamics of New Party Formation in the Czech Republic Since 1998
    Dynamics of new party formation in the Czech Republic 1996-2010: Looking for the origins of a ‘political earthquake’ Introduction Together with Hungary and Slovenia, the Czech Republic was until recently one of a small number of Central and East European (CEE) democracies, whose relatively closed and stable patterns of party politics made them broad outward approximations of West European type party systems. From its consolidation in 1992-6, the Czech party system, in particular, was characterised by a pattern of stability centred on the continual parliamentary presence of four strong parties with ‘standard’ political profiles which had integrated relatively successfully with West European party families: the Civic Democratic Party (ODS), the Czech Social Democratic Party (ČSSD), the Christian Democratic Union – Czechoslovak People’s Party (KDU-ČSL) and the Communist Party of Bohemia and Moravia (KSČM). Although the Czech political scene was marked by some electoral volatility, this seems largely to have taken the form of voters shifting between these four established actors, rather stemming from the successful emergence of new contenders (Powell and Tucker 2009; Mainwaring et al 2009; Deegan-Krause and Haughton 2010).1 A partial exception to this pattern could be found in what might be termed the ‘liberal centre’ of Czech politics which generated a succession of small short-lived market-oriented parties all seeking in different ways to combine economic liberalism with quality of governance issues such as ecology, decentralisation and civil society development (Pšeja and Mareš 2005; Deegan-Krause and Haughton 2010; Hanley 2010a). Overall, however the Czech party system could be viewed as consolidated and stable one with little scope – or little or no need – for significant new parties to emerge.

The results of the 2010 parliamentary elections seemed to mark a break with this pattern: support for two main parties slumped to historically low levels and two new parties, TOP09 and Public Affairs (VV), entered parliament.

The usual disclaimers apply. Abstract Theories of issue evolution and issue manipulation suggest that ‘political losers’ in the party system can advance their position by introducing a new issue dimension. According to these theories, a strategy of issue entrepreneurship , i.e. the attempt to restructure political competition by mobilizing a previously non-salient issue dimension, allows political losers to attract new voters and reap electoral gains. In this study, we examine the extent to which these expectations hold by exploring issue entrepreneurial strategies by political parties when applied to the issue of European integration.
