تقييم قوة المجالس التشريعية في ثلاث دول عربية و تصور الرأي العام العربي لها : حالات الأردن و الكويت و المغرب

Abstract EN

This study evaluates the strength of the legislative bodies in three Arab countries both on paper and in public opinion.

It utilizes an existent measure, the parliamentary power index, to gauge the strength of parliamentary bodies, before comparing that with public perception.

The study asks if the power given to legislative bodies reflects the actual impact on policy from the point of view of Arab citizens.

This study uses the questions in the ACRPS Arab Opinion Index on the legislative councils of Jordan, Morocco and Kuwait, in comparison with the parliamentary power index, to make this assessment.
