Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. In the annals of great works of political philosophy, this text stands as a secure foundation for constitutional democracy. From the fertile mind of America's grand architect, the author, its tenets have shaped the American form of government. This book is a study of constitutional designâ"how best to create and maintain a government that is powerful enough to protect yet limited enough to preserve individual rights. The author tackles the ever-pertinent question of the relationship between a government's exercise of power and the preservation of individual liberties. Among the many indispensable contributions to political thought is the argument that a constitution should divide the powers of government horizontally among different branches and vertically between different levels. The author asserts that, by dividing the powers of government, a constitution can prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful and, therefore, tyrannical. Its influence extends far beyond its time and place of origin and is a must-read for anyone interested in the American system of government or democratic theory. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
