The development of political parties in Ukraine is characterized by institutional features that are not typical for political parties of the countries that form the basis for the development of Western European theories. One of the defining characteristics of the political parties of Ukraine is the level of public endorsement, which is one of the lowest in Europe. The growing number of registered political parties clearly stands out against the background of low public endorsement of the institution of political parties. Such parties are not always able to compete in the political battle. Yet the conducted analysis showed that in recent years there's been a growing number of non-party deputies elected on the lists of political parties. This, in its turn, proved to be a negative factor not only for the functioning of political parties, but it also threatens the effective functioning of the parliament.
