It depends. If it is a democracy, like the U.S., than the people control who is involved with the government, but the government control what people can and cannot do. If it is a monarchy, like Monaco, there is one ruler, but people still have a bit of say. If it is an oligarchy, like ancient England, there are a king, queen and sometimes a prince and or a princess, and they rule with absolute power. If it is a Dictatorship, like North Korea, there is a dictator who rules over everyone.
