has gloss | eng: Fusion of powers is a feature of parliamentary democracies, wherein the executive and legislative branches are intermingled. It is viewed as the opposite of a separation of powers found in the presidential democracies. Fusion of powers exists in many, if not a majority, of democracies today, and does so by design. But the system was the result of political evolution in Britain over many centuries, as the powers of the monarch and the upper house withered away, and the lower house became dominant. |
