ABSTRACT:
The article is dedicated to analyzing the theoretical and methodological approaches of evaluating contemporary political systems and systems of government. The author argued that the modern Political Science mostly appeals towards trichotomous distinction of systems of government, including presidentialism, semi-presidentialism and parliamentarism. The study showed that these options had at different times received applications in Eastern Europe, but semi-presidentialism was the dominant one in 1990-2016. The researcher stressed that different political systems and systems of government distinctively affect the assessment of governments and therefore are the independent indicators of their comparative analysis.
