Abstract: This article examines such aspects of the topic as the financial, material, information, and human resources of the party. The resource base is essential for functioning and attracting of new supporters, as well as promoting the ideological views of the party onto the general public. Traditional approaches towards the mobilization of resources become less demanded in proportion to the increased political competition, leading to the problem of finding the new ways of raising funds. The author deviates from the traditional approach of viewing the resources of the party exceptionally in form of the financial means, suggesting a more extensive interpretation of this phenomenon. Mobilization of resources by the party becomes a substantive task, especially in the conditions of economic crisis. Finances enable the ability to function. Human resources define the quality of the political work. Information resources ensure its recognition; a political instrument of attracting voters by broadening the channels of reaching citizens.
