Explain what Montesquieu means when he writes"every man invested with power is apt to abuse it, and to carry his authority as fa
inysia [295]

Answer:

Montesquieu said that "every man invested with power is apt to abuse it, and to carry his authority as far as it will go". Agree with this statement.

Explanation:

In the book, "The Spirits of the Law", Montesquieu wrote that powers of a government should be divided between three: legislative, executive and judiciary. This separation is important to make sure that a single group of individuals are not given too much of a power. This would ensure that power is not abused.

He said that history has proved that political power has always been abused by a person who has it in abundance. So, to promote political liberty he thought it is important that there are separate branches of powers in a government.

So, Montesquieu made such a system with checks and balances so that no man uses law to do things he shouldn't do and also he refrains from doing what he is allowed to do.
