Abstract

In the United States Constitution, there is a framework designed to limit the amount of authorit y each branch of government possesses. Our government relies heavily on a system known as "checks and balances." This essay examines how the checks & balances theory has been applied & constitution in the US constitution with reference to foreign policy. Using a system of checks and balances, one area of government is able to exert control over another. Overlapping powers are designed to keep one part of the government from gaining too much authority. The principle of limited government is a foundation of the American political system. When it comes to maintaining a level playing field, a three-branched government is essential.
