Systems of Government

BELLRINGER Analyze the chart “Comparing Democratic & Authoritarian Systems” on page 75 in your textbook. Answer Critical Thinking questions 1 & 2. Make sure to EXPLAIN and ELABORATE ON your answer by providing DETAILS from the chart.

SYSTEMS OF GOVERNMENT = Distribution of Power In order to have an effective government, there must be a method for distributing power (authority) within the country.

Federal System Federal System: Power is “layered” or shared among different levels. (ex: United States – Federal, State, & Local levels.)

Unitary Systems Unitary System: Government power is held at the center and the central (national) government performs ALL of the government functions. Central government delegates some powers to lower government levels.

Parliamentary System Parliamentary System: Government power lies with the legislative body and the leader of the country (usually called the Prime Minister) is part of the legislature.

Confederal System Confederal System: Government power is located with the independent states and there is little power in the central government.

Scenarios! Using your notes and your Systems of Government Chart, complete the, “Systems of Government Scenarios” on the back of your chart worksheet. You may work with a shoulder partner.
