	Liberalism, Political Parties
		The parties of the middle class cite the importance of the existence of a social stratum that represents the golden mean.
		Agrarian parties strive for protective tariffs and other advantages (e.g., subsidies) for farmers; civil service parties aim at securing privileges for bureaucrats; regional parties are dedicated to gaining special advantages for the inhabitants of a certain region.
		When the agrarian parties in the industrial countries present their demands, they include in what they call the "farm population" landless workers, cottagers, and owners of small plots of land, who have no interest in a protective tariff on agricultural products.

		However, there was a second type of agrarian party that emerged in both the United States and Australia as a revolt against the financial interests that were seen to be undermining agriculture.
		In general, agrarian parties were to the right of the political spectrum on both economic and social issues and their members could be absorbed later in the twentieth century by other parties of the right.
		The parties that would have to be included are a disparate bunch that are linked together only by the fact that their policies in a number of areas are well to the center of the political spectrum....there have been a few instances of anti-regime movements of the right...

		The party governed alone during the period 1945-76, with the exception of 1951-57 when a coalition was formed with the Agrarian Party.
		The social democratic parties of Finland and Iceland are less easy to fit into a general Scandinavian model of social democracy, although it should be noted that both of these parties negotiated agreements with agrarian parties* during the 1930s and entered red-green coalitions very similar to their counterparts in Denmark, Norway and Sweden.
		If the Scandinavian social democratic parties have lost much of their distinctiveness in terms of ideology, then most scholars would agree that this is probably the case as far as the organisation of the parties is concerned as well.

	Postcommunist Parties and the Politics of Entitlementsby Jeffrey Sachs
		Left-wing parties are winning the elections in Eastern Europe in part because they are seen by the organized recipients of state largesse as the parties most likely to maintain or increase the entitlements of the social welfare state.
		In addition to the politics of entitlements, the left-wing parties have also reaped the advantages of a fifty-year "head start" in organization, fund-raising, recruitment of activists, presence in the factories, trade unions, and bureaucracy, and other nuts and bolts of party organization.
		Agrarian parties have formed coalitions in many of the postcommunist countries.

	Liberalism, Parties of Special Interests
		The parties of special interests, which see nothing more in politics than the securing of privileges and prerogatives for their own groups, not only make the parliamentary system impossible; they rupture the unity of the state and of society.
		The party platform is intended to disguise this objective and give it a certain appearance of justification, but under no circumstances to announce it publicly as the goal of party policy.
		He did not see that the labor parties, just like the other parties of special interests that were simultaneously springing up everywhere, while acknowledging the socialist program as correct in principle, in practical politics were concerned only with the immediate goal of winning special privileges for the workers.

		The formation of liberal parties in Sweden took place amongst the free tradesmen and craftsmen of the cities, supported in the countryside by small farmers and rural craftsmen with the encouragement of the free-church and temperance movements.

		The party must be classified as part of the leftist bloc, because before the election it declared its support for the Social Democratic Party chairman as prime minister and also advocated redistribution policies close to those of the socialist parties.

	East European Constitutional Review
		In particular, the Agrarian Party sponsored an amendment that sought to establish a rigid correlation between the value of the land and the amount of the land tax assessed per unit of land.
		At a social level, it is expressed in the antithetical principles of agrarian collectivism and bourgeois individualism, in the clash between backward agricultural regions and industrial centers, between indigenous peoples in the national territories and other citizens, between the federation subjects and the federal center, and finally, between the central and regional bureaucracies.
		In the first phase, the agrarian and left-wing opposition parties were rendered harmless; in the second, it was the regional elite who found themselves in the minority; and in the third, the long-established membership of the upper chamber of parliament was substantially revised, and the institution ceased to function as an independent political entity.
