“…President-parliamentarism is particularly perilous. Following previous studies, the president-parliamentary system has fared particularly poorly in terms of democratisation both among the post-communist countries 16 and beyond. 17 In fact, Shugart and Carey explicitly warned constitution-makers "to stay away from president-parliamentary designs".…”

This article sets out to analyse recent regime developments in Ukraine in relation to semi-presidentialism. The article asks: to what extent and in what ways theoretical arguments against semi-presidentialism (premier-presidential and president-parliamentary systems) are relevant for understanding the changing directions of the Ukrainian regime since the 1990s? The article also reviews the by now overwhelming evidence suggesting that President Yanukovych is turning Ukraine into a more authoritarian hybrid regime and raises the question to what extent the president-parliamentary system might serve this end. The article argues that both kinds of semi-presidentialism have, in different ways, exacerbated rather than mitigated institutional conflict and political stalemate. The return to

“…Pokud ale Elgie v některém textu sleduje rozdílné případy zemí s přímo voleným prezidentem a vládou odpovědnou parlamentu, pak se jedná buď spíše o přehledové studie, případně dělené na teritoriálně dělené kapitoly (např. Elgie et al 2011), nebo sleduje větší N na celkem "neškodných" otázkách. Například sleduje-li vztah mezi volební účastí v prezidentských volbách a pravomocemi prezidenta, je zřejmé, že do výzkumu nemůže zařadit zemi s nepřímo voleným prezidentem, a vzhledem ke statistické metodě je pochopitelné, že se snaží své N co nejvíc navýšit (viz např.…”

This review essay discusses new definition of a semipresidential system, which has been introduced by Miloš Brunclík and Michal Kubát in their book Kdo vládne Česku? (Who Governs in Czechia?). Advantages and problems of their definition are discussed, with the result that the definition is interesting and generally correct. However, some modifications to the definition are proposed. Subsequently, arguments put forward against the Post-duvergerian definition of semipresidentialism are critically evaluated, including alternatives to the definition proposed by Brunclík and Kubát. The essay closes by presenting alternative ways of dealing with the dispute over the definition of semipresidentialism among Czech political scientists.

“…However, the apparent stability of the country in the recent past cannot be equated with the consolidation of democracy or the absence of serious challenges to the way the political regime responds to popular demands and delivers tangible outcomes. As Robert Elgie and Sophia Moestrup put it, Timor-Leste enjoys a stable but not yet consolidated democratic regime (Elgie and Moestrup 2011).…”
