Abstract
Unified platform is guaranteed to promotion of justice and equality in a country. Fair constitutional building is the sign of separation, quality, law and liberty which provide the way of good governance and rule of law. Americans adopted the theory of separation of powers and checks and balances in their constitution to ensure rights, liberty and equality and to stop any probable abuse of power in governmental machinery. Separation of powers is the theory of Montesquieu who presented his ideas about government, laws, liberty, human rights, slavery, separation of powers, etc. He was against such political systems which could banish liberty, equality and human rights. Both ideas are associated to distribution, and division of powers and functions as well as to maintain balance of power among three institutions of government including legislature, executive and judiciary. The interrelationship between both ideas enhances the traditional, constitutional and democratic behaviors in America promoting supremacy of the institutions. To analyze the practical implementation of the above mentioned theories with special reference to the political setup of America during the given period, this study primarily focuses on qualitative data.
