The main goals of political parties typically include winning elections to gain power, implementing their policy agenda to address key issues, and shaping public opinion to gain support for their platform. It may also involve promoting their party ideology and values, as well as influencing government decision-making.
Europe in general, particularly Scandinavia, is simply more socialist than the United States. Where an American conservative would see the Democrat party as borderline communist, understand that from a European's perspective, the Democrats are barely left wing. They are marginally more to the left than right, and it all comes down to perspective. Saying that Democrats are Liberal and Republicans are Conservative would be disingenuous. These are only truths for those within the United States who have the same American perspective. The common example would be: Find me a Democrat within America, and I'll find a European right wing that's more liberal.The main difference between American and European political parties is that with the primacy of the Parliamentary system in Europe (vs the Presidential system in the USA), Europe has a much larger number of viable parties in each country. That is, in practically all European countries, there exist at least 3 parties, and, in many cases, 5 or 6 parties can carry enough votes to win representation in the Legislature.Thus, European parties tend to be more narrow in their political agendas, as they wish to appeal to specific interest groups; in a system with larger number of parties, the most successful political strategy seems to be to target specific interest groups, rather than go for larger broad-based appeal. Parliamentary systems generally work on the theory of proportional representation systems, where representation is relatively correlated with the amount of total vote that party received, so getting SOME vote will get a party SOME power. So parties tend to have a narrow political spectrum focus, which insure them at least a share of power.In the 2-party American system, the opposite strategy works best: attempt to appeal to the largest possible group of ideals, as getting into power requires the majority of any vote - failing to win a majority means your party gets NO political power. So, American parties tend to have opposing general philosophies which then morph into much larger sets, in an effort to attract voters from the political middle ground (ideologically-speaking). American parties thus have much "wider" ideologies than European parties.Also, as mentioned above, the actual ideals which the American major parties espouse do NOT fit well within the same-named European parties, for many cultural reasons. The American's view of Conservative vs Liberal is very, very different than the European view of the same terms.
Legislative arena: Where party members work within the legislative branch to pass laws and policies. Electoral arena: Where parties compete in elections to gain power and influence. Public opinion arena: Where parties engage with the public through media, social networks, and other platforms to shape public opinion and gain support.

The four main linkage institutions are elections, political parties, interest groups and the media. 1. Elections allow people to get involved and have a voice in the political system 2. Media lets the people know about almost everything that goes on in the govt. 3. Lobby groups: that is - sets of non governmental bodies who can represent our specific interests during any period of government e.g. workers groups (unions) business groups (chambers of commerce) agricultural interests (farmers groups) impoverished and marginalised people ( the several groups who work to represent their interests) etc 4. Political parties (in Australia: Liberals/ Greens/Labour). In USA they would be Republicans/ Democrats and further minor parties, so that after any one group's period in government we, the sovereign people, have a ready made alternative group who are capable, ready, and informed enough for us to move to when we disagree with the government we earlier elected.
