Abstract

The author analyzes contemporary models of government, including the Macedonian one, by looking at the relations between the legislative and the executive, both at the normative level and in practice. According to the author, the problematic and relative methodological value of the dichotomy “parliamentarism – presidentialism” in the classification of government can also be seen in the Macedonian example of the separation of powers. The Macedonian “constitutional cocktail” is particularly complicated and more hybrid in the practical functioning of institutions for several reasons: the absence of democratic tradition and participative political culture, the partytocratic state in which it is difficult to determine where parties end and the state begins, and a fragile civil society.
