Answer:
A
dominant party system is one in which one party is so dominant that other
parties are, for practical purposes, irrelevant.
It is akin to the one-party system but differs in that there exists a
number of parties. In India until 1990, the Congress Party maintained its
predominant position, barring three years, as the ruling party at the national
level. In Japan also the Liberal Democratic Party, until 1993, have been the
sole governing party of the country for more than three decades though a
number of parties are represented in the Diet.
This system also existed in East Germany, Poland and Czechoslovakia,
where one party forced other parties into an electoral pact that voters had no
other choice, but to vote for the candidates of the coalition or to abstain.
