Abstract: Constitutional monarchies are commonly seen as anachronisms, vestiges that are doomed to disappear. Yet one in five countries today is a constitutional monarchy. This paper provides a definition and typology of constitutional monarchy, and explains why constitutional monarchy may be stable in a world in which most countries are republics.
Constitutional monarchies are found in parts of Western Europe (e.g. in Belgium, the Netherlands and Sweden), in Japan and Malaysia, and formerly in Nepal. Quasi-constitutional monarchies can also be found in some Arab states, although often these fall short of genuinely democratic practice.
