Political Parties and the Multi-Party Sytem in Croatia

Mirjana Kasapović ; Faculty of Political Science, University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia

Abstract

This author deals with the creation and development of political parties and the multi-party system in Croatia. The analysis is based upon the two most influential approaches to studying parties in post-communist countries: (a) the classic Rokkan (and Lipset) cleavage approach; and (b) the institutional analysis. The author concludes that party development in Croatia can be understood only in the context of structural and institutional factors, which is accomplished in the afore-mentioned approaches.
