Who among the following has associated the origins of political parties with three theories - institutional theories, historical crisis theories and development theories ?

  • A.La Palombara and Myron Weiner
  • B.Peter K. Merkl
  • C.Harry Eckstein
  • D.Jean Blondel

Answer: A

La Palombara and Myron Weiner associated the origins of political parties with three theories: institutional theories, historical crisis theories and developmental theories. They set this out in Political Parties and Political Development (1966).

Peter Merkl is wrong because he edited work on Western European party systems. Harry Eckstein is wrong because he is known for the study of internal war and congruence theory. Jean Blondel is wrong because he wrote on comparative government and party systems.
