What will be an ideal response?
Ans: According to the author, the authoritarian executive is a leadership institution that is mostly unconstrained by other branches of government.

Democratic executives are executives that are significantly and intentionally constrained in the independence of their actions, usually by the threat of future elections, and they are either presidential or parliamentary leaders.
