Yale Law Professor Advocates Parliamentary System Instead of Presidential System for Egypt

Yale Law Professor Bruce Ackerman has this short article in Foreign Policy, which advocates that Egypt switch to a parliamentary system from a presidential system. Ackerman also seems to imply that Egypt should use proportional representation, although he does not make this explicit. Iraq uses a parliamentary system combined with proportional representation.

Yale Law Professor Advocates Parliamentary System Instead of Presidential System for Egypt — 5 Comments

  1. Parliamentary systems —

    The party hack robots have BOTH legislative and executive powers = 2/3 tyrants — with some systems having also judicial powers = 3/3 TYRANTS.

    SEPARATION OF POWERS — too much for MORON profs to understand ???

    P.R. and nonpartisan App.V. — to get civilization out of the Dark Age.

  2. Pingback: Digest for 3/2 | Stuck in a Digital-Haze

  3. Great idea, but let’s try it in the USA first! The current ‘two-party’ Presidential system is undemocratic and has no legal basis for its existence.

  4. Having the parliamentary stuff in Iraq was one more total disaster by the know-it-all reform MORONS.

    Only a very few structural things have prevented TOTAL chaos —
    1. Elections (by Elector-Voters) of PUBLIC officers for SHORT terms — connected to having EQUAL ballot access laws.
    2. Separation of Powers — See Spirit of the Laws — one of the major works of Western Civilization.
    3. Nonpartisan executive officers and judges.

    More violations of the above = more CHAOS.

    There is some political *science* in this stuff.
