Abstract:

This article elaborates over a fundamental subject for the right functioning of political parties: the funding of its activities. After 35 years of democratic government with various laws passed on the nancing activities of political parties, it has not been possible to obtain a satisfactory legal answer yet. This de ciency justi es the pursuance of a critical anal- ysis which follows the following objectives: to contextualize and to under- stand the relevance of funding within political parties for the functional stability of the representative system; to analyze the Spanish financing model in democratic times, putting special emphasis on the current LO 8/2007 act; to reveal the persistence of old diseases after the recent legal reform – LO 5/2012, 22th of October – as well as the legal solutions es- tablished in the last reform by the LO 3/2015 passed with the aim of overcoming the legal lacks in the topic of political parties financing.
