Party system of contemporary Mongolia (original) (raw)

The paper concerns the main features of political party system of contemporary Mongolia. Nominally, Mongolia is a nation with a multiparty system operating within the framework of free competitive elections. However due to the majoritarian electoral system in the political sphere of the country two political parties are dominated exclusively – Mongolian people’s revolutionary (people’s) and Democratic. This circumstance leads to a significant reduction of inter-party competition, cartelization of the main parties and the low level of trust for the parliamentary elections.
