The Origins and the functions of parliamentarism as the institute of the state power

Abstract

The main focus of this paper is the
problem of parliamentarism as the institute of
the state power, its nature, characteristics,
sources of formation and its current functions.
The paper proves that a parliamentary
system forms an integral part of any democratic
society, at the same time maintaining
specific features of a particular country (conceptualized
through the national context).
The study of parliamentarism in this context
promotes mutual cooperation between the
state and the public with the observance of human
and political values. The subject of the
research is parliamentarism as the state institution;
the research question is the current
functions of this institution. The author uses
different methodologies based on the theory
of division of power: classical school, system
analysis, structurual analysis, comparative
analysis and historical analysis as well as some
elements of institutional approach.
