2. What methods or tactics have political parties employed to establish their legitimacy in China and Peru? What type of legitimacy (results, habit, identity, or procedures) did they aim for or achieve?
3. In what ways and to what extent have political parties set the political agenda and monopolized political recruitment in China and Peru?
4. Identify how political competition occurs either within or between political parties in China and Peru.
A good essay will address both the main topic (comparing and contrasting the role of political parties in China and Peru) and the subsequent supporting questions (numbers one through four). Rely on the definitions and examples from the Comparative Governance textbook and the course readings to bolster your essay. You have more than enough information in these sources to complete the task; it is not necessary to do any further research or reading. The essay should have a brief introduction, related and supporting paragraphs, and a concise conclusion. Do use proper spelling and grammar. Cite (any format is acceptable) the source where you learned your definitions or examples. Be sure to stay within the word count limitations so as to avoid any penalties.
