Semi-presidential system

A semi-presidential system or dual executive system is a system in which a president exists alongside a prime minister and a cabinet, with the prime minister and cabinet being responsible to the legislature of the state. It differs from a parliamentary system in that it has an executive president independent of the legislature; and from the presidential system in that the cabinet, although named by the president, is responsible to the legislature, which may force the cabinet to resign through a motion of no confidence.
