"Under pressure around the world, political parties have differed enormously in their ability to update their offers to voters. This variation is important. While party adaptation does not equal electoral success, parties' failure to "move with the times" has often resulted in their decline and even collapse, making room for radical and populist parties and causing widespread concern over the future of liberal democracy. Focusing on the varying fate of one of Europe's most prominent party families, Christian Democracy, Parties Under Pressure examines why some parties adapt meaningfully to social, economic, and political transformations, while others struggle to do so.
