Abstract: "The Political Party Matrix focuses on the organizational life of the party as it emerges through the collaboration of elected officials. Monroe argues that, rather than experiencing an institutional or bureaucratic rebirth, the parties remain what they have always been: institution through which elites coordinate their activities in the political process requiring neither an elaborate bureaucracy nor a formal organization."
