There are four main types of power sharing. It can be horizontal, among the organs of government such as the executive, legislature, and judiciary; and vertical, among levels of government such as central, state, and local. Power can also be shared among social groups such as ethnic, linguistic, or religious communities; and among political parties and interest groups through elections, coalitions, and lobbying.
