The German constitutional system has been strongly influenced by the political parties since the enactment of the constitution. Additionally, on the European level, a party system was created during the last decades. Both party systems have undergone structural changes in order to meet the changing social, political, economic and medial conditions. Foroud Shirvani points out the legal implications of these developments and analyzes the function of law in the structural changes of a party system.
