Description

This groundbreaking academic study examines semi-presidentialism in emerging democracies beyond Europe, offering the first comprehensive analysis of this governmental system in non-European contexts. Semi-presidentialism combines a directly-elected fixed-term president with a prime minister answerable to the legislature, creating a dual executive structure that scholars have long viewed as potentially destabilising for new democracies due to competition between these two offices. Despite these concerns, over fifty semi-presidential countries now exist globally, with many located in Africa and former Soviet regions. This Routledge Research in Comparative Politics volume provides essential insights into how semi-presidential systems function outside their traditional European stronghold, examining whether these arrangements succeed or struggle in emerging democratic settings and what factors influence their stability and effectiveness.

Key Features

The first dedicated academic study of semi-presidentialism in emerging democracies outside Europe, filling a significant gap in comparative politics literature.

Analyses the dual-executive structure combining directly-elected presidents and legislatively responsible prime ministers across more than fifty semi-presidential countries worldwide.

Examines semi-presidential systems in African and former Soviet nations, regions with distinct political and historical contexts from traditional European implementations.

Part of the Routledge Research in Comparative Politics series, providing rigorous scholarly analysis of institutional design and democratic governance.

Addresses the central concern that semi-presidentialism creates destabilising competition between president and prime minister in fragile new democracies.
