This analysis explores three types of governmental systems: Directorial, Westminster, and Presidential, focusing on the principles of centralized sovereignty, transparency, and participation. We discuss how each system impacts democracy, efficiency, and legitimacy while highlighting the need for accountability and representation of minorities. Key challenges include managing conflicts, ensuring liberty, and addressing globalization's effects. The paper also reviews electoral systems and the importance of separation of powers in fostering a stable governance framework that respects the Volonté Générale and promotes the public interest.
