The aim of this article is to analyze the evolution of the Non-State Wide Parties (NSWP, PANE) in Spain. Our analysis will focus the main political arenas in Spanish political system, at the national and regional levels. In both cases the evolution of the NSWP will be analyzed in terms of parliamentary representation and their role in the government. The study shows the continuity of most of these parties in the national arena, where they have performed a key role in periods of minority government (but without entering into the cabinet). We point out the increasing influence of these parties in the regional arena, where most of them have reached the threshold of government. Adapted from the source document.

AbstractThis article explores how multi-dimensional competition party systems shape the intraparty opinion structure in political parties. The aim is to extend and test May's law of ideological curvilinear disparity to multi-dimensional settings. The data are based on the case of Catalonia, a party system characterized by the relevant presence of non-state wide parties, where political competition is based on two main dimensions: the left right axis and the subjective national identity one. The paper shows that while the Catalan parties do fit with May's law in the left-right axis, this is not the case in the national identity one. In addition, it further illustrates how the interaction between both axes affects party competition and internal opinion differences between leaders, activists and voters. The results attest the complexity of the intraparty opinion structures in multidimensional competition systems.

This article explores how the shape of the intraparty opinion structure in political parties in multidimensional competition party systems, in order to test the law of the curvilinear disparity in these settings. We study the case of Catalonia, with a sub-party system characterized by the relevant presence of non-state wide parties, where political competition is based in two main cleavages (left-right & national identity). The data point out how interactions between both axes generate new dynamics of competition that at last affects the relations between leaders, activists & voters. The results show the limits of May's law to interpret the structure of the intraparty opinion in multidimensional competition systems. Adapted from the source document.
