What is the difference between the checks and balances system and the separation of powers system

History
1 answer:
GaryK [48]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Let´s try to put it simple. The separation of powers system establishes the competencies, the actions, the prerrogatives, the domains where each branch of government can exercise their powers, different from those of other branches.  For example, taxes are set by Congress, and the presidency´s job is to collect them. Interpretation of laws corresponds to the judiciary, not to the president nor Congress.

On the other hand, checks and balances create counterweights to a possible abuse of power by one branch, giving branches of government legal instruments to check, to restrain the actions of another branch. For example: the US administration negotiates and sign foreign treaties, but the Senate must ratify them. Sometimes, it has refused to approve a treaty as when the Senate did not ratify the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 as requested by president Woodrow Wilson.

I guess I'll just write about people, since it'll be the fastest for me.

1. George Washington, the very first president of the United States of America. He was a great leader, and he helped bring an entire nation together with the help of his allies and supporters.

2. Frederick Douglass, a runaway slave and the man who most likely contributed to the Black Power movement the most. He gave powerful speeches everywhere, and thanks to that he helped make all black men and women free from slavery. Not equal, but they were free.

3. Rosa Parks. She boycotted against the way blacks were treated, and, probably the most memorable thing she did, she refused to sit in the back of a bus, where the blacks were forced to sit, and that brought more people to fight for black rights.
