A ruling coalition is a political alliance formed by two or more parties or factions that together command a majority in parliament or government. Such coalitions determine legislative priorities, executive decisions, and the direction of national policy. In multiparty democracies, ruling coalitions are essential mechanisms of governance, enabling different political groups to share power, resources, and responsibility for state affairs.
The stability and composition of ruling coalitions significantly impact a country's political landscape, economic policy, and social agenda. Coalition partners must negotiate policy positions, ministerial appointments, and legislative strategies. The strength of a coalition depends on shared interests, ideological alignment, and the ability to maintain party discipline. When coalitions fracture or lose majority support, governments may face legislative gridlock or early elections.
