Presidents are, without any doubt, influential actors in presidential and semi-presidential regimes. Moreover, even in parliamentary regimes, presidents as heads of state represent their countries and enjoy more or less powerful authority related to, for instance, government formation. Altogether, the politics of presidents should be a matter of substantial concern. Importantly, while the research interest of political scientists usually focuses on a legal framework of presidential politics, there are also informal aspects of presidents’ behavior. To be more specific, constitutional conventions, customs, personal ties, lobbying, or media framing substantially influence presidents’ acts. Therefore, the proposed panel scrutinizes various informal aspects of presidential politics. The panel intentionally is not limited to a specific type of regime as the informal dimension of politics applies to presidential, semi-presidential, and parliamentary regimes. As a result, the papers in the panel will help to understand presidential politics since they will focus on less transparent but equally important aspects of presidents’ behavior as the legal framework.
