چکیده
Cabinet and presidency represent the two most important and prevalent types of political executive. The structures and functions of political executives have varied widely over time and place, and no single conceptual framework can contain all these variations and their consequences. Although this section is titled “Cabinet and Presidency,” it is often difficult to categorize existing political executives as belonging to one or the other of the two types. Therefore, when we discuss ideal types of cabinet and presidential government, conceptual confusion should be carefully avoided between the form of government (the power structure of separation and sharing) and the performance of the government (the efficacy of strong and weak leadership).
