Abstract

As the vice presidency evolves over time, the way we assess vice presidents' activities and influence also needs to change. We must consider the type of partnership that the president and the vice president develop together, which determines not only the latter's involvement in the decision‐making process but also the scope of his or her influence. Since partnerships can change from one term to another and according to the issues, they can help explain the fluctuations of vice presidents' influence within and between administrations, but they also enhance our comprehension of the evolution of executive power by emphasizing the dynamics of the connection between its principal components—the presidency and the vice presidency. This article introduces a new typology accounting for four different partnerships: communication, coordination, cooperation, and collaboration. This typology distinguishes between weak and strong partnerships, depending on the level of influence they allow the vice presidents to exert. Partnerships are defined by a series of criteria related to the selection of the running mate, the tasks of the vice president within the administration, and the quality of his or her relationship with the president.

总统和副总统为一对独特的权力伴侣建立不同类型的伙伴关系

随着副总统职位的不断演变，我们评估副总统活动和影响力的方式也需要改变。我们必须考虑总统和副总统共同发展的伙伴关系类型，这不仅决定了后者在决策过程中的参与程度，也决定了其影响力的范围。由于伙伴关系会随着任期和议题的变化而变化，它们有助于解释副总统在政府内部和政府之间影响力的波动，同时也通过强调行政权力的主要组成部分--总统和副总统--之间联系的动态变化，加深了我们对行政权力演变的理解。本文介绍了一种新的类型学，包括四种不同的伙伴关系：沟通、协调、合作和协作。这种类型学根据副总统施加影响的程度，将伙伴关系区分为弱伙伴关系和强伙伴关系。伙伴关系由一系列标准界定，这些标准涉及竞选伙伴的选择、副总统在政府中的任务以及他或她与总统关系的质量。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
