Power Sharing Concept Map: Key Ideas Explained

Power sharing is the way a democracy distributes power among different levels of government, social groups and institutions so that no single group can dominate. A power sharing mind map usually starts with why power is shared, then splits into its main forms and the places where it operates.

  • Forms of power sharing: horizontal, vertical, social and among political parties
  • Horizontal sharing: power divided among legislature, executive and judiciary
  • Vertical sharing: power divided between central and state or regional governments
  • Social sharing: power shared among religious and linguistic communities

Use the map to revise each form, then test your memory of the examples. To build a version from your own textbook or notes, CogniGuide creates a personalized power sharing map in minutes.
