Based on the claims by James Madison about the separation of powers principle, he was most likely influenced by the Englightenment thinker, <u>Jean Jacques Rousseau.</u>

<h3>What did Jean Jacques Rousseau believe?</h3>

Jean Jacques Rousseau believed that political power should be as a result of popular sovereignty where the electorate decides on everything.

This means that the powers of the legislative, executive, and judiciary be separate and distinct but still rely on the people's will.

Why was joseph mccarthy so powerful during the 1950s and what factors led to his decline?
natita [175]
<span>Joseph Raymond McCarthy was an American politician who served as U.S. Senator from the state of Wisconsin from 1947 until his death in 1957. Beginning in 1950, McCarthy became the most visible public face of a period in the United States in which Cold War tensions fueled fears of widespread Communist subversion. He is known for alleging that numerous Communists and Soviet spies and sympathizers had infiltrated the United States federal government, universities, film industry, and elsewhere. Ultimately, the smear tactics that he used led him to be censured by the U.S. Senate. The term "McCarthyism", coined in 1950 in reference to McCarthy's practices, was soon applied to similar anti-communist activities. Today, the term is used in reference to what are considered demagogic, reckless, and unsubstantiated accusations, as well as public attacks on the character or patriotism of political opponents.

Ok.... I really hopes this helps!!!!
