Why was the combination of a strong President and weak coalition parliament dangerous for Weimar?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It could push parliamentary democracy toward emergency rule

Article 48 of the Weimar Constitution gave the President extensive emergency powers. When coalition parliaments were unstable and could not form a clear majority, the President could rely on decrees and emergency powers rather than parliamentary consent. This weakened parliamentary democracy and helped create conditions for authoritarian rule. Option C is a close distractor: these emergency powers were not abolished; their use could bypass parliament. Exam tip: remember Article 48 as a major constitutional weakness of the Weimar Republic.
