Description

The American Constitution separates power among 3 branches - Legislative, Executive, and Judicial. Is this the only logical way to divide power? Does it have significant advantages or disadvantages, compared to other systems? Professor Steven Calabresi of Northwestern Pritzker School of Law joins us to discuss how the Founders made this choice and how the structure of the US Constitution differs from other governments around the world.
