| Description |
This dataset combines several existing datasets containing data on party organization, party performance, party positions and electoral systems into a single data source. These data a derive from different cross-national data collection projects. Some are online datasets, others were only printed in books. By integrating these datasets and providing unique party ids, we give comparative researchers a tool to investigate parties, their organizations and representation more thoroughly. The dataset contains data on 311 parties, from 22 countries, covering broadly the postwar period. (2015-12-16)
