Political Parties |

The party represents a group of stakeholders whose goal is the realization of the joint program. Parties are a free association of peers who create problem-solving program proposals and nominate its members for the mandates of parliament and state administration to carry out their programs after success in those institutions. Another definition defines parties as links of citizens, who, in the short or long term, act in the creation of political will and wish to represent the people through their size and robust organization, then present themselves to the public and provide means and avenues for realization. of program goals. Based on their organization, parties are divided into cadre parties and mass parties. Parties based on political and social goals are politicized and act to implement their programs. Classification based on ideological directions distinguishes these types of parties: Nationalist, Conservative, Liberal, Social Democratic and Communist Parties, People's and Interest. Officially, each party has a chairman for its national committee who is a protuberant spokesman, organizer and fund-raiser, however without the status of prominent elected office holders.
In a society, the action of a party only makes sense if there are more parties within it, namely political pluralism. The word party is derived from the Latin word pars which means part. If in a society a party has a monopoly on forming political will, it cannot be a matter of competing relations. Then there is a one-party system in society. A government party and to control all systems within society necessarily uses undemocratic means and methods.
Most of the time in one country, despite having more parties, two parties are more important.
Kosovo hosts a multi-party framework with various ideological groups, in which no party gets an opportunity of picking up power alone, and parties must work with one another to shape alliance governments which happens each year.
Since Kosovo declared independence in 2008, no government has finished the 4 year mandate.
The Main Political Parties in Kosovo:
| Democratic Party of Kosovo, PDK |

This is the largest party with the leader Kadri Veseli. It was created on May, 1999, by the political wing of the Kosovo Liberation Army.  |
| Democratic League of Kosovo, LDK |
|---|
This is the second largest Kosovo's party and the oldest one, according to their official web page, this party begun as a group in 1989. At the head of the party was Ibrahim Rugova, known as the pacifist leader of Kosovo's sovereignty. The LDK came second in the elections, in the head with Isa Mustafa.

| "Party systems may be broken down into three broad categories: two-party, multiparty, and single-party. Such a classification is based not merely on the number of parties operating within a particular country but on a variety of distinctive features that the three systems exhibit. Two-party and multiparty systems represent means of organizing political conflict within pluralistic societies and are thus part of the apparatus of democracy. Single parties usually operate in situations in which genuine political conflict is not tolerated. This broad statement is, however, subject to qualification, for, although single parties do not usually permit the expression of points of view that are fundamentally opposed to the party line or ideology, there may well be intense conflict within these limits over policy within the party itself. And even within a two-party or a multiparty system, debate may become so stymied and a particular coalition of interests so entrenched that the democratic process is seriously compromised."(Duverger, 2019) |
Political Party Systems and Types
Political Party System - Google
"The difference between two-party and multiparty systems is not as easily made as it might appear. In any two-party system there are invariably small parties in addition to the two major parties, and there is always the possibility that a third, small party prevents one of the two main parties from gaining a majority of seats in the legislature. This is the case with regard to the Liberal Party in Great Britain, for example. Other countries do not fall clearly into either category; thus, Austria and Germany only approximate the two-party system. It is not simply a question of the number of parties that determines the nature of the two-party system; many other elements are of importance, the extent of party discipline in particular. There have been three historical forms of the single-party system: communist, fascist, and that found in the developing countries." (Duverger, 2019) |
Cadre parties are parties ruled by elite groups. With the exception of in a portion of the conditions of the United States, France from 1848, and the German Empire from 1871, the suffrage was to a great extent confined to citizens and property proprietors, and, in any event, when the privilege to cast a ballot was given to bigger quantities of individuals, political impact was basically constrained to an extremely little section of the populace. The mass of individuals were constrained to the job of onlookers instead of that of dynamic participants.By the finish of the nineteenth century the abundances of the machines and the supervisors and the shut character of the gatherings prompted the improvement of essential races, wherein party chosen people for office were chosen. The essential development denied party pioneers of the privilege to direct contender for political decision. A dominant part of the states received the essential framework in some structure somewhere in the range of 1900 and 1920. The point of the framework was to make the gatherings increasingly majority rule by opening them up to the overall population in the expectation of counterbalancing the impact of the gathering councils. By and by, the point was not understood, for the councils held the high ground in the choice of possibility for the primaries.
Cadre parties typically sort out a generally modest number of gathering disciples. Mass-based gatherings, then again, join a huge number of devotees, here and there millions. Be that as it may, the quantity of individuals isn't the main measure of a mass-based gathering. The fundamental factor is that such a gathering endeavors to put together itself with respect to an intrigue to the majority. It endeavors to sort out not just the individuals who are persuasive or surely understood or the individuals who speak to particular vested parties but instead any resident who is eager to join the gathering. On the off chance that such a gathering prevails with regards to social occasion just a couple of disciples, at that point it is mass based distinctly in potential. It stays, by the by, not the same as the framework type parties.
The Role of a Political Party
Until the start of the gathering venture, the commitment has been structuring an extraordinary part in our subject which was clarifying ideological groups. Right off the bat we were isolated on our fixations that we would concentrate on our task. One section would manage clarifying the ideological groups in Kosovo. Another part would manage clarifying what ideological groups are. My commitment hosts been in working what political gatherings are. The part I have worked is tied in with clarifying how ideological groups are isolated, which means in sorts and in sub-types. The most troublesome part was beginning the venture. We had never managed this sort of task and we were simply being balanced with the way how the reviewing functions in this class. By and by, after the presentations were made with the gathering individuals it ended up simpler to cooperate. Another extraordinary factor that helped us was, talking about with individuals from different areas so we generally could finish one another if something was not known by the other. After the primary structure was made and we isolated our works.
