A government or government ?

I have to use government a lot in my paper and I am talking about any governments. In such case, do I have to add a or not?

A government( or government) has a positive effect on economy by preventing market failure...

I noticed that, and I would just use 'government' except when there is a danger of confusing it with the process rather than the party in power.
