ABSTRACT:
The article is dedicated to analyzing negative and positive aspects and disclosures of socio-economic and political effectiveness and consequences of minority governments in European parliamentary democracies. The researcher also identified the parameters of perceptions of minority governments by the public and electorate. As a result, it was argued that: the voters who support small parties or the voters who support large parties, but hope that they will not win elections, consistently favor minority governments; the voters who are more concerned about socio-economic policies are less inclined to support minority governments; the voters who are not inclined to concentrate power support the idea of minority governments.
