Abstract

When a country transitions to democracy, at first, many political parties appear. A natural question is whether the number of such parties feasible and reasonable -- or whether this is a complete chaos. In this paper, we formulate a simplified version of this question in precise terms and show that the number of parties will be feasible -- i.e., that transition to democracy does not lead to chaos.
