Abstract


Autore:
Frosini Tommaso Edoardo

Titolo:
"Premierato e sistema parlamentare"

The Author analyses the form of government of premiership with reference to the parliamentary system taking Great Britain as a model, being “mother” of both forms of government. However, the British premiership, as it is expressed in the English Constitution, is not applicable to other situations; this is true also if we tried to reproduce exactly all the characteristics of the British system, starting from a non-written Constitution. Th Author proves that the premiership is the evolution of the parliamentary government, that is a specification of the latter, since it maintains the trust between the government and the parliament. The premiership is characterized by having the Prime Minister, indicated (not elected!) by the electoral body, as head together with its majority; in consequence he has a double trust, electoral and parliamentary. The Prime Minister´s role becomes stronger since he holds personal and particular powers, as the appointment and the reversal of his ministres and the early dissolution of the Chambers; in this way the Prime Minister can choose when to return to his electors. In this context it is necessary to emphasize the role of the Parliament, of the parliamentary opposition and of the political parties
