摘要

近几十年来，行政长官的权力在几个议会制民主国家已经很明显。然而，很少有人报道挪威内阁最近的发展情况。本文的目的是双重的。首先，审查了过去15年来挪威内阁中决策权集中的变化，其次，还审查了政治因素如何促成权力集中。通过对19位来自邦德维克二世和斯托尔滕贝格二世内阁的部长的采访，这篇文章发现，内阁中的合议制成分已经被削弱，权力集中在一个内部内阁周围，即所谓的小组委员会，由总理和政党领导人组成。这篇文章还展示了联合政党之间的政治距离和内阁的议会基础是如何影响权力集中的。

Concentration of Decision-Making Power: Investigating the Role of the Norwegian Cabinet Subcommittee

Abstract The empowerment of chief executives has been apparent in several parliamentary democracies in recent decades. However, few accounts have been produced of developments in recent Norwegian cabinets. The aim of this article is two-fold. First, changes regarding the concentration of decision-making power in Norwegian cabinets in the past 15 years are examined and, second, how political factors have contributed to the concentration of power is also examined. Drawing on interviews with 19 ministers from the Bondevik II and Stoltenberg II cabinets, the article finds that collegial elements of cabinets have been weakened, and there has been a centralization of power around an inner cabinet, the so-called subcommittee, consisting of the prime minister and the party leaders. The article also shows how political distances between coalition parties and the cabinet’s parliamentary basis have affected the concentration of power.
