"The book has succeeded in moving us forward in the continuous search for different party types. Its definition, typology and differentiation of specific entrepreneurial parties should be appreciated, not only by political scientists and students of politics, but also by politicians and journalists, interested in the practice of party politics." (Lukás Hájek, European Political Science, Vol. 21, 2022)
"The book makes important conceptual, analytical and empirical contributions to the study of party politics. ... the study provides a comprehensive account of recent developments that informs us about the variation between entrepreneurial parties. The book is a meticulous and extensively documented study that could be useful to both academic audiences and practitioners interested in the formation, persistence and failure of new parties." (Sergiu Gherghina, Party Politics, Vol. 28 (5), 2022)
"This is a highly relevant and pioneering study that should intrigue all academics studying European politics. ... Richness of the accounts the book offers is its yet another major strength, arising certainly to no small degree from the brave descriptions of all sorts of behind-closed-doors dealings. Indeed, with how well the book documents the party-building process with respect to its success or failure, one could even remark that it would make an excellent read for political entrepreneurs themselves." (Filip Fila, Journal of Contemporary European Studies, November 11, 2020)
