Featuring a new database, an innovative theoretical framework, and fascinating findings that may well change the way we think about parties, old and new, this is a great book-and one that will repay reading by scholars of Western and Eastern Europe alike. * Tim Bale, Professor of Politics and International Relations, Queen Mary University of London * Party People: Candidates and Party Evolution is a remarkable book in so many ways. Through the study of 200,000 party candidates in nine countries in Central and Eastern Europe, Sikk and Köker are able to trace the dynamics and manifestations of party change as a perpetual and multidimensional process, and its consequences for party system evolution. With an exciting new dataset on candidates, the book traces a wide range of aspects of party evolution: party entries and exits, fissions and fusions, and the connections with existing parties of new challenger parties. The result is a major piece of Comparative Politics research that contributes to both theoretical reflection and empirical knowledge and that is a must-read for anyone and everyone interested in understanding party politics. * Laura Morales,, Professor of Comparative Politics, Sciences Po *
