    The semi-presidential system combines features of presidential and parliamentary systems. It has both a popularly elected fixed-term president and a prime minister and cabinet that are collectively responsible to the legislature. While the president has some powers, like appointing ministers, the government is dependent on support from the parliament. This can sometimes lead to clashes between the president and prime minister over their respective powers.

    popularly elected fixed-term president and a prime minister and
    cabinet who are collectively responsible to the legislature.
    Features of the semi-presidential system :
    • A combination of the presidential and the parliamentary perceptions.
    • • The dual tasks of an elected president and a government which
    nominated on the base of the partisan majority in the parliament.
    • • The government bears the political responsibility because it emerged
    of the parliament.
    • • The government have the right of dissolving the parliament.

    confidence of a minister or another.

    dissolving the parliament and it is available for one
    time per year.
    Disadvantages :

    the interests clash between the president and the
    head of the government who came by the
    parliament, this problem was nicknamed in France
    as “ The double coexistence problem “. The
    president can misuse of the right of people
    referendum as it is now prevalent in some
    countries.
    A comparison with other system:
    • The presidential system: in this system the executive authority is
    independent of the legislature and it couldn’t be under its control and it
    couldn’t dissolve the parliament.
    • The parliamentary System: in this system the ministers represented as the
    executive branch of the parliament. The legislature is so interpolated with
    the executive authority. Also in this system the head of government of
    course is the executive author and the great parliamentarians alike.
