Two articles on semi-presidentialism that I have written have just been published. They are:

Robert Elgie, ‘The perils of semi-presidentialism. Are they exaggerated?, in Democratization, vol. 15, no. 1, February 2008, pp. 49-66.

Robert Elgie, ‘Varieties of semi-presidentialism and their impact on nascent democracies’, in Taiwan Journal of Democracy, vol. 3, no. 2, December 2007, pp. 53-71.

I can supply electronic copies of the text if required.
