I partiti politici nel prisma del diritto comparato

Abstract

The article reconstructs the transformation processes of the party system by analysing the most recent comparative law essays published in Italy. Since the late 1980s, the transformation of traditional democratic parties has, as is well known, led to the emergence of post-democratic leader parties and the rise of populist forces. For the Author, the political party can still have a future, but its reference horizon cannot be the national, nor the European legal framework.
