Powers not specifically given to the federal government by the Constitution but which are logically related, or required, to exercise enumerated powers are called implied or inherent powers. They are also sometimes referred to as unenumerated powers.
There are many powers not given to the Federal government in the Constitution. Specifically it states that any power not specifically granted to the government will be reserved for the States (interpreted as for the people).
Expressed Powers
expressed powers
No, actually the reverse. The Constitution states that all powers not specifically granted to the Federal Government are reserved for the state.
Delegated powers
Enumerated powers are the powers granted to the Federal Government by the U.S. Constitution. The clause explicitly enumerates all of the powers the Federal Government should have, and their powers are limited to those listed in the clause.
The American Constitution delegates all powers not specifically assigned to the Federal government to the States. This is know as the 'residual powers clause' and is outlined in Article I.

powers specifically listed (enumerated). In American governement, it means powers specifically granted to different branches of the Federal government in the Constitution.
No, the constitution does not give unlimited power, in fact it gives only limited powers to the government. There are 3 types of powers: Expressed, Implied, and Reserved. Expressed Powers - powers for the Federal government that are not specifically stated in the Constitution. Implied Powers - powers for the federal government that are actually written down in the constitution. Reserved Powers - powers given to state government (basically the left-over powers that the Federal government isn't in charge of.)
Strict constructionalists believe that the federal government can only do that which is authorized in the Constitution.
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.
