Presidents, Monarchs, and Prime Ministers

Más información sobre el libro

The book delves into the evolution and categorization of democratic political regimes with separate heads of state and government from 1850 to 2019. It examines the emergence and trajectories of dual executive systems, including those with monarchs and prime ministers or presidents and prime ministers. A key focus is on the actual powers wielded by heads of state, moving beyond mere constitutional provisions, and assessing the stability of these regimes across different historical contexts and geographical locations.
