How does the separation of powers guard against tyranny

Social Studies

cluponka [151]3 years ago

The separation of powers and checks and balances grants each branch of government with their own limits of power. This prevents tyranny because the other branches will check the one branch's limits on the power and stop it before it gets out of hand.

Who identified psychological disorders as a harmful dysfunction?
nikdorinn [45]
Jerome C. Wakefield, psychologist at the School of Social Work at Columbia University criticized the (then popular) definition of psychological disorder as “statistically unexpectable distress or disability”.

Luden [163]

A pocket veto occurs when Congress adjourns during the ten-day period.

  • The president cannot return the bill to Congress. The president's decision not to sign the legislation is a pocket veto and Congress does not have the opportunity to override.
  • When Congress is in session and a bill is not signed by the president within ten days, it becomes law.
  • The bill does not become law if Congress adjourns before the 10-day mark and the President has not signed it ("Pocket Veto.")
  • The bill expires and Congress cannot vote to override it if Congress adjourns before the ten days are up and the President does nothing.
  • If Congress still wishes to pass the law, they must start the entire process over. This is known as a pocket veto.

<h3>What is a pocket veto?</h3>

Using a legislative trick known as a "pocket veto," a president or other veto-wielding official can block a bill by doing nothing (keeping it in their pocket).
