Imagine a game with three teams, where each team has the power to stop the
others from scoring. That’s the basic design of the U.S. government.
This episode's goal is to demonstrate the mechanisms of checks and balances in action as the primary defense against concentrated power.
Here is this week's assignment: Find one news story from the past year where one branch of the federal government limited the power of another. Analyze if the check was effective or just created gridlock.
Our Featured Guest for Episode Five is Dr. Michael Lynch, Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Georgia.
