	List of political parties in Uruguay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Uruguay has a multi-party system, with three dominant political parties, with extreme difficulty for anybody to achieve electoral success under the banner of any other party.
		Uruguay underwent an intermittent series of civil wars through much of the 19th century, which ended in 1904 and the party system has in the past reflected regional loyalties which emerged during that period.

	Uruguay - POLITICAL PARTIES
		The Colorado and National parties and, to a lesser extent, the Broad Front coalition, were the three major political entities in 1990.

	Gender and Political Participation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Political obstacles that impede participation include resistance to women's participation, lack of tradition and motivation to actively intervene in politics, the electorate's lack of confidence in women, economic and social criteria for political candidacy, and the exigencies of availability that political activity demands.
		Political parties, as agents and instruments of citizens' participation in political life, shall guarantee non-discrimination against women both in their internal functioning and in the processes for gaining access to public institutions of representation and government.
		Political parties shall have one year, from the date of publication of this Law, to bring their organs of government and internal representation into line with the provisions of this Law.

	Uruguay - Traditional Parties
		Uruguay was one of the few Latin American countries with two political groupings--the Colorado and National parties--as old as the country itself.
		In general, however, the Colorado Party traditionally was associated with the city, labor unions, and secularist and "progressive" movements, whereas the National Party identified with the interior farming groups and the more religious and conservative groups.
		As a result of the primaries of the Colorado Party in early August 1990, Batlle Ibáñez's Unity and Reform sub-lema ousted the faction led by former President Sanguinetti from the leadership of the Colorado Party.

	Uruguayan political parties
		The Colorado (red) Party was the traditional liberal and the Blanco (white) the traditional conservative party.
		Uruguayan traditional political parties are not monolithic organisations, in the sense that they might have several “lists” for each of the party’s factions — for instance, the Battlismo or the Sanguinettismo of the Colorado Party, or the Lacallismo of the National Party.
		The origin of the names of the parties could be find in the battle of Carpintería in 1836, where Oribe wore his white ribbon, and José Fructuoso Rivera's forces used a sky blue ribbon (using the color of the Uruguayan Cockade of that time or the other color commonly used in the Uruguayan flag).

	EIAL IV2 - European Political Parties and the Southern Cone (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Political parties constituted an essential building block in the construction and institutionalization of the relationship, and were in the vanguard of Europe's interest in events in Latin America.
		European political parties' activities start from the common presumption that their role is one of external and logistic support for an essentially internal process.
		European political parties, especially on the left, have also indirectly contributed to the rethinking of strategy and tactics which took place in the 1980s within Latin American socialist parties in particular, which in turn led to a shift towards social democratic ideologies on the left, and a greater possibility of consensus among the opposition.

	Political Affairs Magazine - Venezuela and the century of socialism
		All over the world, parties were formed with the intention of doing what the workers of Russia had done — allied themselves with other sections of society being oppressed by the old regime, had a revolution to seize political power and set out to build a radically different society.
		Though the many communist parties affiliated to the Communist International always recognised that the revolutionary transformation of their own countries would be distinctive, the example of the armed uprising of the Russian workers, soldiers and peasants amidst a social and military crisis of the old order was a very powerful one.
		In fact, the main union peak body CTV is affiliated with Acción Democrática, one of the traditional ruling parties associated with Venezuela’s disastrous period of neo-liberal economics in the 1980s and ’90s.

		Finding fault with the elections of 2000, in which Aristide won the Presidency and the Fanmi Lavalas party won a huge majority of elected positions, a group of wealthy opposition parties conducted a noisy, Venezuelan style, media campaign, which won more support abroad than it did at home.
