Více o knize

The book explores the evolution and categorization of democratic political regimes featuring a separate head of state and government from 1850 to 2019. It focuses on the emergence and stability of dual executive systems, including those with monarchs and prime ministers or presidents and prime ministers. By examining the actual powers held by heads of state rather than just constitutional roles, the author sheds light on the dynamics of semi-presidential and parliamentary systems, revealing patterns and trajectories that have shaped governance globally.
