By welcoming new groups into their ranks, parties give those groups a pragmatic and psychological stake in the political system. This means that the groups become invested in the success of the party and the political system as a whole. This can lead to greater participation and engagement in politics, as well as increased support for the party's policies and candidates. It does not necessarily establish a monocultural dependence on the party system or rob groups of their individual interests and concerns, nor does it enhance political hegemony by disenfranchising voters outside of these groups.
