Focusing on the gradual acceptance of parties by a fundamentally antipartisan society, and on the advent of social movements in the 1820s and 1830 and their relation to the formation of mass parties, Formisano demonstrates the role of such factors as class, industrialization, religion, and ideology in party formation.
