It characterizes the party system, discusses the types of emerging government coalitions, and analyzes them using the RILE index. The work aims to understand the development trends of the Slovak party system, the consolidation of parties, and the operational problems between the election system and party system. It also examines the positional values and programmatic orientation of parties based on the internationally accepted database and RILE criteria. The publication includes tables with data on the proximity of variable tensions in the party system and the relevant quantification on the RILE scale. The hypothesis is tested that the programmatic convergence of parties in the left-right spectrum creates space for the emergence of extremist and antisystemic parties. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 126 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14 June 2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Peter Lang AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis publication delves into the characterization of the Slovak party system and its analysis from the perspective of cleavages and emerging government groups. The monograph also includes a detailed description of the individual types of emerging government coalitions and their politological analysis using the RILE index (right-left positioning). This index is employed to specify the programmatic differences of these emerging coalition governments and assess the impact of the development of the party system in Slovakia on their nature from 1990 to 2012. The primary focus of the work lies in examining the development trends of the Slovak party system amidst the programmatic heterogeneity of the individual coalition groups and the overall evolution of the variable tensions within the party system. The categorization of government groups is based on the positional and programmatic orientation of the parties, as published in the framework of the international database CMP (Comparative Manifestos Project). The Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin für Sozialforschung (WZB) database processes, among other things, the data related to the political programs of the parties within the framework of their comprehensive ideological orientation. The Center for Social Research in Berlin thus houses relevant international comparisons of party systems and their development. The objective of this publication is to delineate the format and type of the party system in Slovakia, its consolidation, and the ensuing operational challenges between the election system and the party system. Furthermore, the aim is to extend the analysis of the Slovak party system to include the specification of positional values and programmatic orientation of the parties in Slovakia based on internationally accepted data.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 151 x 229 x 13 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783631831427\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: New ed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marcel Martinkovic","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44101102502138,"sku":"9783631831427","price":22.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646232387657_book.jpg?v=1646929759","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/coalition-governments-and-development-of-the-party-system-in-slovakia-9783631831427","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
