It is a must inside step files:

When /determine the party "(.*)"/ do |n|
  When obtain the party n
end

results in

    And I determine the party "corporate form"              # 
features/entities/
step_definitions/entity_steps.rb:56
      undefined method `party' for 
#<ActionController::Integration::Session:0x7e
e6c3b8> (NoMethodError)

While

When /determine the party "(.*)"/ do |n|
  When "obtain the party \"#{n}\""
end

passes.

  Scenario: Record Entity basic identification information  # 
features/entities/
entity.feature:17

    And I determine the party "corporate form"              # 
features/entities/
step_definitions/entity_steps.rb:56
    Then I should save the party information                # 
features/entities/
step_definitions/entity_steps.rb:60
