The first chapter deals with the political parties themselves -- the definition of basic terms, functions and role of the political parties, typology of political parties and also the issue of the intra-party democracy. In the second chapter the parties are briefly introduced. Next subchapters analyse aspects according to which the levels of the intra-party democracy can be meassured. After this, the comparation of both parties is made. In the conclusion all the results are summarized and evaluated.
