The difference is that duties are required by law; responsibilites are voluntary (by choice). Citizens should fulfill both because for a democracy to be successful, all citizens should be active within the community, or be effective atleast.

Amendment X
nordsb [41]

The problem of how much power the federal government should have has been a problem in history for ages. This can be seen after the Revolutionary War with the Articles of Confederation. Many people were scared of the federal government obtaining power after the Revolutionary War, as a lot of people did not want to have what happened with Great Britain happen again.

Amendment X, or the Tenth Amendment, states that the "<em>powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people</em>."

This statement limits the power of the federal government by granting all powers that are not already granted to the government to the citizens or the people. The federal government does not have all of the power to do everything and the power to do certain things are with the states and the people. This can be seen with local taxes, certain licenses, elections, and other things.

Where can Montesquieu and Locke’s ideas be found?
Elis [28]

The correct answer is; The United States Constitution.

Further Explanation:

Both Montesquieu and Locke can be described as enlightenment philosophers. They both had ideas and theories on how the government should be used to govern the citizens. When the writers of the constitution were gathered together, they put their theories in the constitution.

The Spirit of the Laws was written by Baron de Montesquieu. He published the book in 1748. The Two Treatises of Government of was written by John Locke. The book was published in 1689. He initially had the book published anonymously because he wasn't happy with that particular edition. He did not like the spelling errors and other printing errors. He had one other edition printed before his death but was still not fully happy. He hand edited the third edition and gave it to his friends to get published. He died before seeing the last edition published.
