Question

federalism
direct representation
concurrent powers
checks and balances

Answer 1

The system designed to create a political system where institutions and political organizations provided a measure of protection against corruption and abuse of power is **checks and balances**. This system ensures that no single branch of government (executive, legislative, or judicial) has unchecked power, allowing each branch to limit the powers of the others, thereby preventing any potential abuse of power.
