Abstract

While the success of the president's legislative agenda is measured by examining the rate of passage of presidential bills (the batting average), the dominance of the president over the legislative process can be better understood by considering the share of presidential bills among bills introduced and laws enacted. Studies on the success of the president's agenda outnumber those on the dominance of the president, but the latter more directly address the debate on the proactive legislative powers of the executive. Reviewing the 13,358 bills introduced and the 2603 laws enacted in the eight legislative terms in Chile between 1990 and 2022, we associate the constitutional changes in 2005 and the electoral reform of 2015 with a decline in the legislative dominance of the president. There was a progressive decline in presidential dominance in legislative inputs and outputs long before the 2019 social upheaval weakened the Piñera government.

超总统制走向何方?1990-2022 年智利通过的法案和法律的起源
总统立法议程的成功与否可以通过考察总统法案的通过率(平均通过率)来衡量,而总统在立法过程中的主导地位则可以通过考察总统法案在提出的法案和颁布的法律中所占的比例来更好地了解。关于总统议程成功与否的研究多于关于总统主导地位的研究,但后者更直接地探讨了关于行政部门主动立法权的争论。通过回顾 1990 年至 2022 年智利八届议会中提出的 13358 项法案和颁布的 2603 项法律,我们将 2005 年的宪法修改和 2015 年的选举改革与总统立法主导权的下降联系起来。早在 2019 年社会动荡削弱皮涅拉政府之前,总统在立法投入和产出方面的主导地位就已逐步下降。
