MASSOLIT: The Party System in UK Politics

In this lecture, Professor Paul Webb (University of Sussex) introduces the idea of party systems in UK politics, focusing in particular on: (i) the idea of a party system as a pattern of interactions between political parties that can be competitive or collaborative; (ii) the different ‘arenas’ in which interactions between parties can take place: the electoral, the legislative and the executive; (iii) some examples of cooperation within each of these ‘arenas’; and (iv) the different ‘levels’ at which interactions between parties can take place.

This lecture is part of a larger course on The Party System in the United Kingdom. The full course can be found here: https://www.massolit.io/courses/the-party-system-in-the-united-kingdom?source=yt
