Power-Sharing Agreement
A Power-Sharing Agreement is a political arrangement where different groups or parties share control over governance. This type of agreement is often used in countries with diverse populations to ensure that various ethnic, religious, or political groups have a voice in decision-making. By distributing power, these agreements aim to promote stability and prevent conflict.
Such agreements can take various forms, including coalition governments or federal systems, where authority is divided among different levels of government. Successful power-sharing can lead to more inclusive policies and foster cooperation among groups, ultimately contributing to peace and social cohesion in societies like Lebanon or Bosnia and Herzegovina.
