Le chargé de cours Martin Carrier vient de publier le livre Executive Politics in Semi-Presidential Regimes – Power Distribution and Conflicts Between Presidents and Prime Ministers aux éditions Lexington Books.

It contrasts institutional, partisan, and extra-institutional explanations and identifies patterns of change for the power distribution between presidents and prime ministers. It provides an empirical analysis of selected case studies and demonstrates the necessity to understand power variations in a configurative perspective, exposing the limits of institutional design explanations, peut lire sur le site de l’UQAM.
