Separation of Powers

Separation of powers means the Constitution assigns lawmaking, law-enforcing, and law-interpreting authority to three different branches instead of letting one branch or person hold all three kinds of power at once. This is a distinct idea from checks and balances: separation of powers is about who originally holds each kind of power, while checks and balances is about how each branch can still limit the others even though their own core powers stay separate.
