Summary/Abstract: Although historians frequently used words like „cabinet”, „government” or „council of ministries”, understanding by the these the collegial organ of the executive power, the concepts are not as clear as they seem. First, the Constitution of 1866 provided very few things about the ministerial instition. Second, during the period betwen 1866 and 1918, the Parliament adopted very few legal provisions on this matter. So, the institution was regulated by acts of administration and mostly by legal and political practices. This article intends to start a discussion about how this fundamental institution of the State appeared and developed without a rigorous legal framework.
