Definición

  • Coalitions are “governments in which different parties commit themselves to serving together in the same cabinet and sharing the portfolios that control of the chief executive affords them,” according to Kaare Strøm, Wolfgang C. Müller, and Torbjörn Bergman, editors of the 2008 Cabinets and Coalition Bargaining: The Democratic Life Cycle in Western Europe. Between 1945 and 2003, nearly five-sixths of all cabinets in Europe's parliamentary and semi-presidential systems constituted such multiparty governments, usually formed in cases where elections did not result in an overall parliamentary majority for a single party.
