ABSTRACT /

One of the biggest challenges that every framer of the constitution faces with is selection of appropriate forms of state – form of rule, political system, state structure and system of government. At the same time, compatibility of these various forms shown in practice is very important, because the efficiency of the particular constitutional system largely depends on that compatibility. This paper analyzes the relationship between federal states with various systems of government, namely, the ways in which complex, federal state structure “fits” with different systems – presidential, parliamentary, assembly and mixed. Special attention is paid to the relationship of the system of government with the principle of participation of federal units, in other words, how system of government can ensure representation of federal units within federal political authorities (legislative and executive). In this regard, paper also analysis the influence of electoral and party system to the principle of participation. In the end, there is an attempt to find the answer to the question which system of government is most compatible with the federal state.
