Political parties as a source of mobilization and conflicts: modern experience of European parties

The article deals with the activities of political parties to address the state conflicts by mobilizing social strata. The political practice of modern Europe has a lot to study. This analysis is based on the French National Front Party whose activities attract many researchers as well as political parties in Germany and Austria. The mechanisms of public interest articulation and their existence in the context of permanent social conflict are the subject matters of this article. Such activities of political parties have a direct impact on voters’ electoral preferences which are reflected in the election results. If the party meets the needs of a large part of the population and resolves conflicts quickly and profitably, it increases the level of its mobilization and social support. Therefore, the study focuses on the efficient use of conflicts by political parties in modern European practice.
