Abstract or Introduction

The political system of the United States is characterised by separation of powers with an elaborate system of checks and balances among the three constitutional branches: Congress the presidency and the court. In this essay I trace back this system back to the historical intention of its framers, assess the current distribution of powers and discuss problematic developments.
