İngiliz Yürütmesinin Gelişimi: Kabine, Başbakan ve Core Yürütme Modeli

Öz

Birleşik Krallık'ta 2019 yılından itibaren üç başbakanın istifa etmesiyle birlikte Birleşik Krallık'ta yürütme organı literatürde yoğun bir şekilde tartışılmaya başlandı. Yürütmede kimin aktif olduğu ve yürütme yetkisinin nasıl kullanılacağı konusunda uzun süredir devam eden tartışma yeniden alevlendi. Uzun bir süre yürütmenin ya kolektif bir yapıya sahip olan kabine sistemi ya da başbakanın asıl karar verici olduğu başbakanlık sistemi tarafından yönetildiği vurgulandı. Bu makale, ne kabine ne de başbakanlık sisteminin günümüz İngiliz yürütme organını açıklamaya yeterli olmadığını savunmaktadır. Makale, kabine ve başbakanlık kurumlarını hem tarihsel hem de çağdaş açılardan analiz ederek bunu açıklamaya çalışıyor. Son olarak makale, günümüz Birleşik Krallık yürütme organın nasıl çalıştığını anlamak için birden fazla aktörün olduğu ve kaynaklar, yapı, strateji ve taktikler gibi belirli faktörlerin yürütmeyi belirlediği iddiasına dayanan the core executive modelini ele alır.

The Evolution of the British Executive: Cabinet, Prime Minister and Core Executive Model

Öz

With the resignation of three prime ministers in the United Kingdom since 2019, the executive organ in the UK has become a topic of controversial discussion in the literature. The longstanding debate regarding who wields significant influence within the Executive branch and how executive power is exercised has reignited. It has been underscored that historically, the executive functioned either through the cabinet system, characterized by a collective decision-making structure, or the prime ministerial system, where the prime minister held primary decision-making authority. This article argues that neither the cabinet nor the prime ministerial system adequately explains the contemporary British executive. By analyzing the institutions of the cabinet and the prime minister's office from both historical and contemporary perspectives, this article seeks to explain this point. Ultimately, it examines the core executive model, positing that multiple actors and various factors such as resources, structure, strategy, and tactics collectively determine the functioning of the British executive today.
