22 apr 2021 · Tom Murse. Updated on April 22, 2021. A parliamentary government is a system in which the powers of the executive and legislative branches are intertwined as opposed to being held separate as a check against each other's power, as the Founding Fathers of the United States demanded in the U.S. Constitution.
The parliamentary system can be contrasted with a presidential system, such as the American congressional system, which operates under a stricter separation of powers, whereby the executive does not form part of, nor is it appointed by, the parliamentary or legislative body.
Parliamentary systems. The executive is organized very differently in a parliamentary system. In the United Kingdom, whose Westminster system has been adopted in many countries, the executive branch is not entirely separate from the legislative branch. On the contrary, the British cabinet may be described as the leading committee of Parliament.
Parliamentary systems, where the prime minister is both chief government executive and head of the strongest party or coalition in the legislative branch, have formal or informal “kitchen cabinet” groups similar to the NSC that assemble in times of crisis.
