DE LA ROSA ALBURQUERQUE, Ayuzabet  y  CONTRERAS MANRIQUE, Julio César. The political party: between political science and organizational studies. Polis [online]. 2007, vol.3, n.2, pp.17-67. ISSN 2594-0686.

The article's purpose is to recover, analyze and ponder the benefits and relevance of considering the political parties (PP) as organizations in order to establish an interdisciplinary dialogue between the political science and the organization studies. On one hand, the tradition of the organizational study on the PP developed in the political scientist's field, it has produced transcendental studies for the social sciences and organization studies; nevertheless, organization studies and organization theory have developed a vaster and deeper knowledge on organizations, and the political scientist's approximation to organization studies has been scanty. On the other hand, the organization studies have forgotten PP's as a study object. Such distance between both knowledge fields has produced ignorance and limited the PP's studies in this perspective. Therefore, this article tries to show a little of the great wealth that can be obtained thru the dialogue between political science and organization studies to extend the knowledge on the PP, if PP's, are considered as organizations and, consequently, brought into the organizational zoo.
