Document Summary

Kinds of executive in political science: political and permanent executive. The executive and administrative functions in modern society have become highly complex. The two elements are often distinguished by referring to the former as the political executive and the latter as the permanent executive. The tenure of the political executive depends on popular election. Civil servants on the other hand, having entered service at an early age, continue in service until retirement. Political parties and politicians at the helm of affairs may keep on changing, the civil service people are there by maintaining political neutrality in the discharge of their official duties: single and plural executive. Single executive consists of a person who does not share power with others. The president of u. s. a. is an example of the single executive. When the directing authority is exercised not by one single individual but by a group of persons having co-equal authority, it is known as plural executive.
