Introduction

A Compilation of Political Party Statutes

-Introduction

This compilation includes statutes from nine political parties of different ideological backgrounds, geographic locations, and size. Drawing from the statutes included in this publication, the introduction uses selected examples to highlight how different political parties have addressed various organizational issues. In addition to the core set of rules that define their organizational structures and processes, most parties will have additional guidelines that describe more detailed

arrangements for matters such as candidate selection. This introduction focuses on party foundational documents, which, typically, can only be amended by the party’s highest decision-making body. However, there are brief references to examples of additional party rules that can be more easily amended than party constitutions.
