    Catch all party describes the post second world war party system in Western Europe. Otto Kirchheimer’s concept of the catch-all party (1966) is one of the more often cited ideas structuring the contemporary understanding of political parties. A Catch-all Party is a political party that aims to attract people with diverse political viewpoints, appealing to a large amount of the electorate. Mass integration parties formerly held together by economic class or religious denomination transformed themselves into a new party type, the catch-all party. This occurred in response to changing social conditions following World War II and what has been labelled post-industrial change.
