Checks and Balances
The idea of separation of powers to hinder power abuse. Checks and balances are the constitutional controls whereby basically the three branches of government (the executive, legislative and judicial, but also other state institutions) have limiting powers over each other so that no branch will become supreme. It is a democratic system of "mixed" government that includes multi-layer institutional controls, active examination and verification of laws, finances and other policies.
