BOOK LAUNCH: STUDYING POLITICAL PARTIES AS ORGANIZATIONS

This new research monograph, authored by Emil Husted and published by Bristol University Press, outlines what it means to study political parties as organizations. In the book, Husted develops and applies four theoretical perspectives on ‘party organization’ to the case of the Danish green party Alternativet. Drawing on an extensive ethnographic study, Husted tracks the party’s humble origins in 2013 as a social movement through its inaugural term until the 2022 national elections, spotlighting Alternativet’s unprecedented organizational dynamics. By dissecting this ‘party that did not want to be a party’ through classical, configurational, comparative, and cultural perspectives, the book opens a new area of enquiry to scholars in organization and management studies as well as beyond.
