In the government, bicameralism (Latin bi, two + camera, chamber) is the practice of having two legislative or parliamentary chambers.

Bicameralism is an essential and defining feature of the classical notion of mixed government. Bicameral legislatures tend to require a concurrent majority to pass legislation.
