  Prime Minister - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
In some monarchies the prime minister exercises powers (known as the Royal Prerogative) that are constitutionally vested in the monarch and which can be exercised without the approval of parliament.
Prime Ministers can be found in both constitutional monarchies (as is the case in the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Norway and Japan), and in republics, where the head of state is an elected or unelected official with varying degrees of real power.
Contrary to popular and journalistic myth, most prime ministers in parliamentary systems are not appointed for a specific term of office and in effect may remain in power through a number of elections and parliaments.

Today's unified Yemen --having undergone several major changes from a closed medieval monarchy to a socialist as well as tribal based nation and after living under Ottoman rule, Egyptian, British Colonial as well as Socialist/Communist influences-- is in the process of developing a modern State and civil service.
The Prime Minister's Office is possibly the ultimate focus of all decision making in a highly pervasive Government which impacts on the fabric of Yemeni operations and social life in a most realistic manner.
As a result of the Re-unification of Yemen, the civil service reflects the duplication and complexity of functional roles and contradictions both in appointments (many politically initiated) and role definitions, which now call for rationalisation and adaptation to the new political structures of a unified republic.
