Question
How is one-party system different from two-party system? Explain with examples.
Solution
One Party System: In some countries, only one party is allowed to control and run the government. These are called one-party systems. E.g., China.
Two Party System: In some countries, power usually changes between two main parties. Several other parties may exist, contest elections and win a few seats in the national legislatures. But only the two main parties have a serious chance of winning majority of seats to form government. Such a party system is called two-party system. E.g., The United States of America and the United Kingdom are examples of two-party system.
