The political power, which determines and formulates the relationship between the legislative and the executive, has a vital role in the forming of a governmental system. Therefore the concept of political power is discussed in detail in the introductory part of the thesis.

These mechanisms have the purpose of decreasing the potential risks which result from changing the system of the government.Our study that has the title, ?Rationalized Parliamentary Governmental System and The Case of Turkey?, consists of three parts.
