Parliaments and Government Formation : Unpacking Investiture Rules / Rasch, Bjørn Erik; Martin, Shane; Cheibub, José Antonio (ed.). - Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2015. - pp. 309-330. - ISBN 978-0-19-874701-7
Abstract
Cabinet investiture and cabinet removal are conceptually distinct mechanisms linking the parliamentary majority and the cabinet. The chapter presents the first comparative analysis of the relationship between these mechanisms. Based on principalāagent theory, it argues that both serve the same purpose of ensuring successful delegation from the parliamentary majority to the cabinet. As such, both rules can be seen as substitutes. This substitutability thesis is contrasted with a complementarity view based on the classic separation of powers notion according to which strong parliaments should be powerful in both dimensions. Systematic analysis of the institutional powers of twenty-five European parliaments with regard to cabinet selection and removal provides strong empirical support for the substitutability thesis as investiture and removal powers are negatively related.
