How does the constitution guard against the concentration of power?

Hello!

The constitution guards against the concentration of power by having established the separation of powers.

Separation of Powers, also known as "checks and balances" is the way in which the U.S. government is split into different branches:

- The executive branch (the president)

- The legislative branch (the house of representatives and the senate)

- The judicial branch (the courts and judges)

By having a separation of powers, no single branch can take over or build up too much power. Each branch has a different role in government, so no branch has power over everything; they all need to work together in order to make an efficient government.

I hope this helps you! Have a lovely day!

Explain how the Ordinance of Nullification caused conflict between South Carolina and the United States.
motikmotik

The Nullification Convention met in 1832. The convention declared the tariffs of 1828 and 1832 unconstitutional and unenforceable within the state of South Carolina after February 1, 1833. Decision of forcefully collecting taxes caused conflict between South Carolina and the United States.

Explanation:

The Ordinance of Nullification was caused by the belief that the tariffs of 1828 and 1832 favored the North over the South and therefore violated the Constitution. This led to the protest and conflict in between South Carolina and United States.

The imposition of tariffs argued that the U.S. Constitution gave rights to the states to block the enforcement of a federal law. Congress passed the new negotiated tariff to South Carolina. The convention declared the tariffs of 1828 and 1832 unconstitutional and unenforceable within the state of South Carolina after February 1, 1833.
