Unitary Ways Government Distributes Power Power is held by one central authority.

Unitary System The national government has most of the power. Lower levels of government are given power by the national government and usually administer national policies on a local level. The power given to the lower levels of government can be changed or taken away without permission or notice.

Federal (Federation) Ways Government Distributes Power Power is divided between one central and several regional authorities.

Confederation Ways Government Distributes Power Voluntary association of independent states that often only delegate a few powers to the central authority. Secure some common purpose.

Citizen Participation Autocratic (Ruled by one)-a system in which people have virtually no say in the government and personal freedoms are severely limited. Some dictators start off as democratically elected leaders who morph into dictators.

Citizen Participation Oligarchic (Ruled by a powerful few)-A form of government in which political power is in the hands of a small, elite segment of society. Democratic (Ruled by people)-A form of government in which the power to govern is given by the people to the chosen leaders in free elections at all levels.

Parliamentary Democracy A system of government having the real executive power vested in a cabinet composed of members of the legislature who are individually and collectively responsible to the legislature. May have a Prime Minister elected by the legislature.

Presidential Democracy A system of government in which the president is constitutionally independent of the legislature. The executive branch exists separately from the legislature (to which it is generally not accountable).
