Separation of powers is a political doctrine originating in the writings of Charles de Secondat, Baron de Montesquieu in The Spirit of the Laws, in which he argued for a constitutional government with three separate branches, each of which would have defined abilities to check the powers of the others.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau: 28 June 1712 – 2 July 1778) was a Genevan philosopher, writer and composer. Born in Geneva, his political philosophy influenced the progress of the Enlightenment throughout Europe, as well as aspects of the French Revolution and the development of modern political and educational thought.

His Discourse on Inequality and The Social Contract are cornerstones in modern political and social thought. Rousseau's sentimental novel Julie, or the New Heloise (1761) was important to the development of preromanticism and romanticism in fiction. His Emile, or On Education (1762) is an educational treatise on the place of the individual in society. Rousseau's autobiographical writings—the posthumously published Confessions (composed in 1769), which initiated the modern autobiography, and the unfinished Reveries of a Solitary Walker (composed 1776–1778)—exemplified the late-18th-century "Age of Sensibility", and featured an increased focus on subjectivity and introspection that later characterized modern writing.

So Madison was influenced by Montesquie and Rousseau as many people in that time.

When children grow up and leave home, mothers most frequently report feeling?
wariber [46]
Contrary to popular belief, when children leave their home where they grew up, their mothers usually feel happy.
This is not to be taken negatively though - they are not happy to kick out their children out of the house after so many years. They are happy that their children have grown up, can take care of themselves and perhaps start their own families. Also, they might be happy to finally have some time for themselves, to focus on their own interests which may have been put aside.

igomit [66]

Answer:

State law is the body of laws for a state, but the rule of law is a principle.

Explanation:

The laws of a state are about the individuals laws each state can have in U.S. regarding some matters. While rule of law is a principle that highlights the sovereign of the law, which means all people, institutions and the government are under it. A constitutional theorist called Dicey wrote the rule of law should follow: “equality before law; presumption of innocence unless proven guilty and primacy of rights over Constitution”.
