The concept of "separation of powers," dividing governmental authority into legislative, executive, and judicial branches, was primarily championed by which Enlightenment thinker to prevent tyranny and safeguard liberties?
Correct Answer:
Baron de Montesquieu
Explanation:
The Founding Fathers admired Montesquieu's ideas on the separation of powers and incorporated them into the framework of the United States Constitution. This system established three separate branches of government—the legislative, the executive, and the judicial—each with distinct powers and checks on one another, helping to maintain the balance of power and protect individual liberties.
