Synopsis

Politics is Local examines a critical but often neglected aspect of party politics: the local. Virtually everything available on parties and elections in Canada focuses on parties as national organizations, yet most Canadians operate in their individual communities and their associations are driven by the idiosyncratic patterns of community life in Canada. The authors examine the local dimension of party politics, its organization, structure, and activity patterns. The book explores several dimensions of local politics and demonstrates that parties are deeply rooted in local communities and that the shape of these many communities profoundly structures political life.
