Mrs. K. Rogers 7 th Grade Social Studies

How governments distribute power. There are 3 main forms of distribution. UNITARY: 1.) Unitary- A system of government where the central government possess much of the authority and law making power. In this type of system, the local governments act as the “arms” for the central government (brain)- meaning they carry out the orders or laws made by the central system- but have no real power of their own.

UNITARY The HEAD government posses most of the power & authority. Central Govt. = Brain = Control Local Govt. = Arms = No real power Brain=Control Arms follow directions and help things go smoothly.

CONFEDERATION: 2.) Confederation- System of government that has a weak central government, with most of the power being held by the local governments. (Opposite of unitary.) During the Civil War- the south broke away from the north and formed a Confederate government.

CONFEDERATION Has a weak central govt. & strong local govt. Example: South during the Civil War Brain=NO power Arms=ALL the Power **Opposite of Unitary**

FEDERATION (Federal) 3.) Federal- System of government where the power is split between the central and local governments. It’s a combination of unitary and confederation types of government The United States has this type of governmental system.

FEDERATION (Federal) The power is split between the central and local govt. A combo of Unitary & Confederation Brain & Arms work in unison - together. Example: The U.S.A.

How do governments determine citizens participation? AUTOCRATIC: 1.) Autocratic- Government in which one person possess unlimited power – Dictator is usually the ruler (citizens do not participate in gov’t) Govt. in which one person possess unlimited power Ruler=dictator or autocrat NO CITIZEN PARTICIPATION in govt.

OLIGARCHIC: 2.) Oligarchy-Form of government in which the power is in the hands of a few persons or small group (who have the combined power of a dictator.) (citizens do not participate in gov’t). Govt. in which the power is in the hands of a FEW people that join together to form a combined power like a dictator NO CITIZEN PARTICIPATION

DEMOCRATIC: 3.) Democratic- Form of government where the power lies in the hands of the people. People put the head of state into power. Govt. where the people put the head-of-state into power Power LIES IN THE PEOPLE. Ex. U.S.A.

What are the two forms of democratic governments? PARLIAMENTARY: 1.) Parliamentary- A system of government in which the executive power works with members of the legislature, who make the laws.. The executive power is actually part of the law making process (Ex. Prime Minister; i.e., U.K.)

PRESIDENTIAL 2.) Presidential- A system of government in which the Executive / president is separate from the legislature or law making process. The executive power is constitutionally separate from the legislature or law making process. President = the Head of the country (Ex. USA)
