This ideal is founded on the belief that individuals are free and equal and have a public responsibility and a personal stake in promoting a better society.

Republicanism

Explanation: it represents more than a particular form of government. It was a way of life, a core ideology, an uncompromising commitment to liberty, and a total rejection of aristocracy

The answer is Republicanism

Explanation:

A republic is a state in which the power reside with the people. It is a state in which the people are free to elect their representatives who will represent them in the government. The representative derive their power to rule from the people. In other words, we say that sovereignty belong to the people. In this form of government, there is a belief that everyone is equal before the law irrespective of your status in the society. This form of government also guaranteed the fundamental human right of the people as enshrined in their constitution such as the freedom of speech, freedom of movement, right to life,right to personal liberty and so on.

separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another.   the intent is to prevent the concentration of power and provide for checks and balances.  

the traditional characterizations of the powers of the branches of american government are:

* the legislative branch is responsible for enacting the laws of the state and appropriating the money necessary to operate the government.

* the executive branch is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted and funded by the legislative branch.

* the judicial branch is responsible for interpreting the constitution and laws and applying their interpretations to controversies brought before it.

forty state constitutions specify that government be divided into three branches:   legislative, executive and judicial.   california illustrates this approach; "the powers of state government are legislative, executive, and judicial.   persons charged with the exercise of one power may not exercise either of the others except as permitted by this constitution."

while separation of powers is key to the workings of american government, no democratic system exists with an absolute separation of powers or an absolute lack of separation of powers. governmental powers and responsibilities intentionally overlap; they are too complex and interrelated to be neatly compartmentalized. as a result, there is an inherent measure of competition and conflict
