Abstract
Patrick Dunleavy and Sean Kippin examine how democratic the UK¡¯s party system and political parties are. Parties often attract criticism from those outside their ranks, but they have multiple, complex roles to play in any liberal democratic society. The UK¡¯s system has many strengths, but also key weaknesses, where meaningful reform could realistically take place.
