This article lists political parties in Luxembourg .
Luxembourg has a multi-party system with three strong political parties ; two other moderately successful parties have emerged recently. No single party has a chance of gaining power alone, and parties must work with each other to form coalition governments .
Current parties
The number given for local councillors is the total of councillors elected to communal councils that employ proportional representation . In majoritarian communes, parties do not usually run in the same manner, making comparisons difficult. [1]
