prezidenciális

Prezidenciális is a term used to describe a political system where the head of state, who is also the head of government, is elected independently of the legislature. This figure, typically called a president, holds significant executive power and is not directly accountable to the parliament in the same way a prime minister in a parliamentary system would be. The president serves a fixed term and is usually empowered to appoint and dismiss cabinet members, issue executive orders, and veto legislation. This separation of powers between the executive and legislative branches is a defining characteristic of presidentialism. In such systems, the president often acts as a symbol of national unity while simultaneously leading the day-to-day administration of the government. Impeachment is typically the primary mechanism for removing a president from office before their term expires, requiring a high threshold and specific legal grounds.
