Legislatures are pervasive, resilient and have consequences for their political systems. Legislatures in Asia have been relatively neglected in the literature. We identify two working hypotheses ‐ that the external environment will determine the basic relationship of the legislature to the executive (what type of legislature it is) and that internal characteristics will determine how strong or weak it is within the particular category ‐ and the principal variables that allow us to analyse and compare legislatures and test the hypotheses. The purpose of the study is to provide both rich description of particular legislatures and to further understanding of legislatures as a particular species of institution
