	List of political parties in Finland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Finland has a multi-party system, with three strong parties, in which no one party often has a chance of gaining power alone, and parties must work with each other to form coalition governments.
		Finland's two other major parties are the Centre Party of Finland (Keskusta), traditionally representing rural interests, and the conservative National Coalition (Finland) (Kansallinen Kokoomus), which draws its major support from the business community and urban professionals.
		A registered party may nominate candidates in all national and local elections, and a party that is represented in parliament is entitled to a government subsidy relative to its number of seats.

	Election Resources on the Internet: Elections to the Finnish Eduskunta (Parliament)
		Parties that form an electoral alliance are treated as a single group, as are voters' associations belonging to a joint list.
		List seats in each constituency are allocated to candidates that obtain the largest number of votes within the list or group of lists, up to the total number of seats won by the list or group.
		Finland's present-day party system traces its origins to the Parliamentary reform of 1906, when the Diet of the four estates - nobles, clergy, burghers and peasants - was replaced with an unicameral legislature, the Eduskunta, composed of 200 members chosen by universal suffrage and proportional representation.

	ipedia.com: Worldwide green parties Article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Green Parties are part of, but do not exclusively represent, a larger political movement to reform human governance to better fit the constraints of the biosphere -- usually called the Green movement to contrast it from the electoral participation of the legally-registered Parties.
		Many people also confuse Green Parties with Greenpeace, a global NGO prominent in the ecology movement, which like the Green political movement was founded in the 1970s, and shares some green goals and values, but works with different methods and isn't organized as a political party.
		The distinction is very often made between "green parties" (generally spelled in lowercase) in a general sense of emphasizing environmentalism, and specific organized political parties with the name "Green Party" (capitalized) that have grown up around a statement of principles called the Four Pillars and the consensus process built on them.

	The Encyclopedia of Contemporary Scandinavian Culture
		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.
		But there were also political challenges from the right, in particular in Denmark and Norway with the emergence of the populist Progressive Parties in the early 1970s, and their critique of certain key areas of social democratic policy, notably high taxation and high levels of public spending.
		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.
