Although some enjoy a brief time in the sun, termination is the long-term prospects for all minor parties. The usual pattern is a speedy ascent, an impact on the political system including a time in government, followed by a prolonged termination.

With the first-time entry of the Greens into government in 2007, their wipeout in 2011, the termination of the Progressive Democrats in 2009, and the failure of a new party to emerge despite the on-going financial crisis, the time is ripe for this analysis.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Secret Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31679007981638,"sku":"158","price":10.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/8921\/4278\/products\/RadicalOrRedundantMinorPartiesinIrishPolitics_LiamWeeks_AlistairClark.jpg?v=1591098383","url":"https:\/\/www.thesecretbookstore.live\/products\/radical-or-redundant-minor-parties-in-irish-politics-liam-weeks-alistair-clark","provider":"The Secret Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
