Dual control (politics)
Dual
control
is the
situation
in which a
national government
agrees to
share
control of its
country
with
representatives
of
foreign
governments
, called
controllers
, because it is
indebted
to them.
Examples
Egypt, which was indebted to
European powers
after the
completion
of
the Suez Canal
and thus
forced
to
accept
controllers in its
government
in the
1870s
.
