This book examines the contemporary relevance of the concept of the core executive across a range of constitutional contexts, covering examples from Westminster systems, continental Europe, and Scandinavia. Much study of core executives focuses exclusively on the Westminster systems, but this book expands that scope to take into account nations where coalition government has been the norm for decades. Focusing on the interaction between the political and administrative executives, the book will address the tension between the two that has increasingly become apparent in an age of populism and mediatisation. weiterlesen
