Separation of Powers is important because it keeps all the branches of the government from having all the power. If one branch had all the power, the US would, by definition, become a Dictatorship.
Who would even ask this question? What a boring interest or a lame school assignment!
so no branch is too powerful
It is important that the powers of the government are separated so that the three branches of the government can not have one overpower the other, this is called the system of checks and balances.
Separated powers are the rights and responsibilities that are divided among the various branches of government. These branches include the executive branch, judicial branch, and legislative branch.
because the powers are separated :)))
Charles de Montesquieu
that of separation of powers
In the US Constitution, this document specifies what are the responsibilities of the federal government. Duties and responsibilities not specifically delegated to the federal government are therefore the responsibilities of the states.
The 3 basic powers that all governments have are legislation, judicial and execution. These powers are separated in most countries into their respective branches.
So No Branch Gets Too Powerful; Each Is Balanced
It is a bundle of rules and dictators and power that separates into different parts.
Twitches
There will always be many criticisms when talking about the separation of powers. Many still believe that the powers are not really separated in a lot of instances.
when you have a legal document actulally saying that different powers should be separated to prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful. Being vague because you didn't say which nation's constitution you were referring.
