<p>89.8.79.175: robot: Creating new article from Special:WantedPages</p> <hr /> <div>The '''executive''' is the branch of [[government]] that is responsible for the day-to-day [[management]] of the [[state]]. (''Executive'' is short for '''executive branch''' or '''executive power'''.)<br /> <br /> Under the [[doctrine]] of the [[separation of powers]], the executive is not supposed to make laws (role of the [[legislature]]), nor to interpret them (role of the [[judiciary]]). The executive is supposed to put the laws into action.<br /> <br /> The executive is led by the head of Government. The Head of Government is assisted by a number of [[Minister|ministers]], who usually have responsibilities for particular areas (e.g. health, education, foreign affairs), and by many government employees or [[civil servant]]s.<br /> <br /> In a presidential system, this person (the [[President]]) may also be the head of State, but in a [[parliamentary system]], he or she is usually the leader of the largest [[Political party|party]] in the [[legislature]] and is most commonly termed the [[Prime Minister]] ([[Taoiseach]] in the [[Republic of Ireland]], (Federal) [[Chancellor]] in [[Germany]] and [[Austria]]). In [[France]], executive power is shared between the [[President of France|President]] and the [[Prime Minister of France|Prime Minister]] and this system has been reproduced in a number of former French [[Colony|colonies]]. [[Switzerland]] and [[Bosnia and Herzegovina]] have similar systems.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> * [[Constitution]]<br /> * [[Constitutional economics]]<br /> * [[Political economy]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Government]]<br /> {{law}}<br /> {{authority control}}</div>
