Abstract
The explanation of political systems in the context of the concepts of a unified government and a divided government gives a clear information of the relationship between the ruling powers. According to the mentioned concepts, the research with its analytical-critical method aims to explain the type of relations between government and parliament as well as within the executive branch. The purpose of above reviews is to reject the claim of semi-presidentialism of the political system of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
In the 1358 Constitution, in opinion and not necessarily in practice, the relationship between the government and the parliament was in accordance with unified government. In addition, we were facing a divided government at the level of the executive branch. According to the amendment of the constitution and the removal of the prime minister as the guarantor of unified government and holding separate presidential and parliamentary elections, the relationship between these two institutions can be examined in the form of a divided government. Due to the exclusive, joint and overlapping executive powers between the leadership and the president as stipulated in the constitution, creation of divided government at the level of the executive branch as well, is worth thinking.
