本文研究了美国和英国主要政党和小政党网站的突出程度，比较了搜索功能、会员形式、政党组织和问题信息、图形特征、更新的流行性以及它们的相对质量和复杂性等特征。我们还研究了主要政党和小政党在报纸和杂志以及各种搜索引擎和政治迷网站中的突出程度。我们发现，小党派在英国的网络上比在美国有更多的存在，但即便如此，两国主要政党的网站都比小党派的网站更加突出和复杂，而且无论是线上还是线下，主要政党通常都比小党派受到更多的媒体报道。数据表明，主导发达工业化国家大部分通讯、交易、选举和政治进程的既得利益集团正在将影响力扩大到这些政党。 网络空间中的进程。
This article examines the prominence of Web sites of major and minor parties in the United States and the United Kingdom, comparing features such as search capabilities, membership forms, information on party organization and issues, characteristics of graphics, and currency of updates as well as their relative quality and sophistication.We also look at the prominence of major and minor parties in newspapers and magazines and in various search engines and sites for political junkies. We find that minor parties have a greater presence on the Web in the United Kingdom than in the United States, but even so, the sites of major parties in both countries are more prominent and sophisticated than those of minor parties, and major parties generally receive more media coverage than minor parties, both on-line and off-line.The data suggest that the established interests dominating most of the communications, transactions, elections, and political processes of advanced industrialized countries are extending their influence to these processes in cyberspace.
