Power Sharing 1 (3) PPT

Power sharing involves distributing authority between different government bodies, levels of government, and social groups. There are horizontal and vertical divisions of power that separate responsibilities between legislative, executive, and judicial functions at national, state, and local levels. Power is also shared among religious, linguistic, political, and other pressure groups to give representation to minorities and ensure no single group dominates. An ideal system involves cooperation and participation from all parties in decision making.
