  1. one-party

    A one-party system is a type of state or government in which a single political party has the right to form the government, usually based on the existing constitution. All other parties are either outlawed or allowed to take only a limited and controlled participation in elections. It typically means the political system operates under a broader ideology or belief system imposed by the ruling party. Thus, a one-party system tends to suppress political dissent and diversity. Examples include the People's Republic of China (Communist Party) and North Korea (Worker's Party).
