Abstracts

EN

The reviewed book pertains to the issue of changes which political parties undergo after an electoral defeat. The defeat is regarded is a critical organizational challenge, usually yielding divergent results. The discussed research problem deserves a refl ection of political science, as electoral defeats are an immanent part of the democratic order. The research problem is precisely defi ned and consequently realized by the members of the research team; subsequent articles attest to a thought-through, coherent research concept, in line with the studies analyzing sources and consequences of changes within political parties. In subsequent articles authors focus on both endogenous and exogenous factors triggering the change, presenting parties as actors employing both reactive and proactive strategies. The book shall be recommended to all readers interested in the problematic aspects of political parties. Its strength is its inherent coherency (rarity as regards collective works) and the consequent realization of the defi ned research goal.
