Parties and interest groups: to a new model of interaction

Considered in the article are the topical tendencies in the evolution of the model of parties-politics relations – tendencies preconditioned by the crisis of the mainstream parties. The author turns to the analysis of the “hybrid parties”, whose appearance, in his opinion, is symbolical in the context of the said tendencies; he turns also to the concept of “new populism” as applied to researching anti-mainstream parties. The conclusion of the article contains judgments on possible directions of further development of the model of parties-politics relations.
