Dualism (politics)
Dualism in terms of politics, refers to specific political concepts that are related to the functional or structural duality of a particular political system. In some states, functional dualism is manifested through the division of power between the two main branches of government (legislative and executive). In other, mainly complex states, structural dualism is expressed as a division of power between two constitutive units. Parliamentary dualism Functional dualism is common in parliamentary systems, like those in the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Sweden, where the term ''dualism'' is used to refer to the functional separation of powers between the cabinet and parliament. Unlike the presidential system, the legislative branch consists of the cabinet together with the parliament and cabinets are formed on the basis of a majority in parliament. Unlike the Westminster parliamentary system, cabinet ministers cannot be members of parliament. An important political issue is whether ...

Imperial And Royal
The phrase Imperial and Royal (, ) refers to the court/government of the Habsburgs in a broader historical perspective. Some modern authors restrict its use to the Dual Monarchy of Austria-Hungary from 1867 to 1918. During that period, it indicated that the Habsburg monarch reigned simultaneously as the ( Emperor of Austria) and as the (King of Hungary), while the two territories were joined in a real union (akin to a two-state federation in this instance). The acts of the common government, which was responsible only for the Imperial & Royal ("I&R") Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the I&R Ministry of War and the I&R Ministry of Finance (financing only the two other ministries), were carried out in the name of "His Imperial and Royal Majesty", and the central governmental bodies had their names prefixed with Symbolic employment of or Before 1867, the territories under the control of the Habsburg monarch in Vienna used or the hyphenated interchangeably.

Norwegian Law (Israel)
The Norwegian Law (), initially Mini-Norwegian Law () for its first version, is a name given to an amendment to Article 42c of the Basic Law: The Knesset. The law allows ministers or deputy ministers to resign from the Knesset, but remain a minister. The legislation became known as the "Norwegian Law", due to a similar provision in Article 62 of the Constitution of Norway, requiring a member of the Storting to resign their seat and be replaced by a deputy. This system of dualism, separating the cabinet and the legislature, also exists in Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, Portugal, Estonia, and other countries. History The concept was originally promoted by the Degel HaTorah faction of United Torah Judaism. UTJ had dropped from seven seats to six in the 2015 election, so Degel MK Ya'akov Asher lost his seat, leaving the faction with only two of the six. The faction wanted then-Deputy Education Minister Meir Porush of Agudat Yisrael to resign, so Asher could replace him as next o ...

Ministerial By-elections
From 1708 to 1926, Member of Parliament (United Kingdom), members of parliament (MPs) of the House of Commons of the United Kingdom, House of Commons of Great Britain (and later the United Kingdom) automatically vacated their seats when made Minister (government), ministers in Government of the United Kingdom, government and had to successfully contest a by-election in order to rejoin the House; such were imported into the constitutions of several colonies of the British Empire, where they were likewise all abolished by the mid-20th century. The requirement of MPs to rejoin the House upon ministerial appointment arose from 17th-century ideas of the independence of the House from the influence of the Crown, which appoints the ministers. Unlike in the United States, Constitution of the United States, whose constitution took such ideas to the extreme by Separation of powers#United States, fully separating the executive and legislative branches, support for some royal patronage mean ...

Dual Mandate
A dual mandate occurs when an official serves in or holds multiple public positions simultaneously. This practice is sometimes known as double jobbing in Britain, double-dipping in the United States, and ''cumul des mandats'' in France. Thus, if someone who is already mayor of a town or city councillor becomes elected as MP or senator at the national or state legislature and retains both positions, this is a dual mandate. Political and legal approaches toward dual mandate-holding vary widely. In some countries, dual mandates are a well-established part of the political culture; in others they may be prohibited by law. For example, in federal states, federal office holders are often not permitted to hold state office. In most states, membership of an independent judiciary or civil service generally disqualifies a person from simultaneously holding office in the executive or the legislature. In states with a presidential or dualist-parliamentary system of government, members o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Trialism In Austria-Hungary
Trialism in philosophy was introduced by John Cottingham as an alternative interpretation of the mind–body dualism of Descartes. Trialism keeps the two substances of mind and body, but introduces a third substance, sensation, belonging to the union of mind and body. This allows animals, which do not think like humans, to be regarded as having sensations and not as being mere automata. Background Cottingham introduced this term after noting that Descartes' account of sensation and imagination has placed his official dualism under considerable pressure: "Partly as a result of this, we often see the emergence, in Descartes’ writings on human psychology Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behavior. Its subject matter includes the behavior of humans and nonhumans, both conscious and unconscious phenomena, and mental processes such as thoughts, feelings, and motives. Psychology i ..., of a grouping of not two but three notions – not a dualism but what may ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Three Branches Of Government
3 (three) is a number, numeral and digit. It is the natural number following 2 and preceding 4, and is the smallest odd prime number and the only prime preceding a square number. It has religious and cultural significance in many societies. Evolution of the Arabic digit The use of three lines to denote the number 3 occurred in many writing systems, including some (like Roman and Chinese numerals) that are still in use. That was also the original representation of 3 in the Brahmic (Indian) numerical notation, its earliest forms aligned vertically. However, during the Gupta Empire the sign was modified by the addition of a curve on each line. The Nāgarī script rotated the lines clockwise, so they appeared horizontally, and ended each line with a short downward stroke on the right. In cursive script, the three strokes were eventually connected to form a glyph resembling a with an additional stroke at the bottom: ३. The Indian digits spread to the Caliphate in the 9th ...

Kingdom Of Hungary (1867-1918)
The Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen (), informally Transleithania (meaning the lands or region "beyond" the Leitha River), were the Hungarian territories of Austria-Hungary, throughout the latter's entire existence (30 March 1867 – 16 November 1918), and which disintegrated following its dissolution. The name referenced the historic coronation crown of Hungary, known as the Crown of Saint Stephen of Hungary, which had a symbolic importance to the Kingdom of Hungary. According to the First Article of the Croatian–Hungarian Settlement of 1868, this territory, also called Arch-Kingdom of Hungary (, pursuant to Medieval Latin terminology), was officially defined as "a state union of the Kingdom of Hungary and the Triune Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia". Though Dalmatia actually lay outside the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen, being part of Cisleithania, the Austrian half of the empire, it was nevertheless included in its name, due to a long political cam ...
