同義詞
  • cross-party

    Very similar in meaning; 'cross-party' emphasises cooperation across party lines, while 'all-party' stresses that every party is included.

  • multi-party

    Broader term; 'multi-party' can mean involving several parties but not necessarily all of them.

  • bipartisan

    Limited to two parties; used mainly in two-party systems like the US. Not a true synonym.

反義詞
  • single-party

    Involving or controlled by only one political party.

  • partisan

    Strongly supporting one party rather than cooperating across parties.
