Содержание слайда: Government:
In a functioning democratic system there should be:
1. separation of powers between these 3 branches* - i.e. each branch had its own area in which makes decisions
and
2. checks and balances
which gives each branch powers that enable it to prevent the other branches from taking some bad actions
both principles are different yet closely linked

sometimes unicameral (e.g. in Sweden)

heads of states – different types of them:
functions of a hereditary monarch (mostly symbolic but compare the Swedish vs. Spanish kings)

Types of “government”:
parliamentary system
the PM = the dominant figure, usually a party leader & his /her majority party control both legislative & executive branches (party discipline is important in this system)*

№34 слайд
Содержание слайда: Semi-presidentialism
According to Elgie (1999: 13) “semi-presidential regime may be defined as the situation where a popularly elected fixed-term president exists alongside a prime minister and cabinet who are responsible to parliament”
This has become widely acknowledged as the standard definition of semi-presidentialism, utilized by basically all recent studies (Schleiter and Morgan-Jones 2009: 875)
№35 слайд
Содержание слайда: Semipresidential Systems
Advantages of Semipresidential Systems
Providing cover for the president
The ability to remove unpopular prime ministers with the stability of fixed terms
Additional checks and balances
Disadvantages of Semipresidential Systems
Confusion about accountability
Confusion and inefficiency in the legislative process
№36 слайд
Содержание слайда: Semi-presidentialism
“executive power to preside over cabinet meetings and to direct national policy, is shared between these two executives.
Problematically, such power sharing precludes a clear division or clear separation of powers, often leading to constitutional ambiguity.
As a consequence, in times of disagreement between the president and the prime minister, it is often not quite clear from the constitution which executive has final decision authority.” (Skach 2007: 96-97)
№37 слайд

№38 слайд
Содержание слайда: Semi-presidential system
Perhaps not very surprisingly, this literature indicates that the likelihood of conflict between the president and the government (or the PM) increases when they represent different parties
In France such occurrences are referred to as cohabitation, whereas elsewhere it is about divided government (Fiorina 1996), defined in semi-presidential regimes by Elgie (2001b: 12) as situations where ”a party (or parties) opposed to the president has (have) a majority in the key house, leading to the appointment of a prime minister who is also opposed to the president.
№39 слайд
Содержание слайда: Semi-presidential system
During the period of divided government from 1997 to 2002 disputes between President Jacques Chirac and centre-left PM Lionel Jospin delayed major pieces of legislation, particularly in the area of judicial Reform.
These conflicts facilitated the constitutional amendment of 2002, which shortened the presidential term from seven to five years in the hope that it would reduce the likelihood of cohabitation whilst keeping intact all of the president’s powers (Skach 2005: 113-117)
№41 слайд
Содержание слайда: Seminar: “Government” types - review:
We already know some basic classifications of governments / political systems, depending on:
I the territorial distribution of power between different levels of government (unitary vs. federal state)
II the relationship between the executive and the legislature (a parliamentary vs. presidential systems)
III whether a monarch is a head of state or somebody else (monarchy vs. republic)
IV the extent of coercion/consent; limits placed on the legitimate authority of government
a scale from liberal /democratic governments to totalitarian governments
№42 слайд
Содержание слайда: Seminar: Government forms - review:
Do not forget that…
constitutional monarchy =
a rather modern form of government (vs. absolutist monarchy); a single person, a monarch usually in a hereditary succession, reigns under the law
a monarch reigns not rules; it is not exclusive with democratic & parliamentary systems
vs. republic – republics usually have presidents, with much or less power
