| ARTICLES RELATED TO Seventeenth Amendment | | | | |  Seventeenth Amendment: Encyclopedia II - Separation of powers - Checks and balancesThe phrase "checks and balances" was also coined by Montesquieu. In a system of government with competing sovereigns (such as a multi-branch government or a federal system), "checks" refers to the ability, right, and responsibility of each power to monitor the activities of the other(s); "balances" refers to the ability of each entity to use its authority to limit the powers of the others, whether in general scope or in particular cases.
Keeping each independent entity within its prescribed powers can be a delicate process. Public support, tradition, and wel ...

| | | | | Seventeenth Amendment: Encyclopedia II - Separation of powers - Parliamentary systems The United States uses a presidential system of government, but around the world, a more common system is the parliamentary system.

| | | | | Seventeenth Amendment: Encyclopedia II - Separation of powers - Taiwan Republic of China : Five branches Some countries take the doctrine further than the three-branch system. The government of the Republic of China, for example, has five branches: the Executive Yuan, Legislative Yuan, Judicial Yuan, Control Yuan, and Examination Yuan. (Some European countries have rough analogues to the Control Yuan in the forms of ombudsmen, separate from the executive and the legislature.)
However, as Taiwan is a young democracy, the relationship between the executive branch and the legislative branch is often poorly defined. In practice, there are a ...

| | | | | Seventeenth Amendment: Encyclopedia II - Separation of powers - The press around the world Main articles: Freedom of the press, public broadcasting
Media freedom is generally considered to be a core supporting mechanism for democratic governments, and it is found in all strong democracies, regardless of the organizational principle of the "branches" of government.
Many governments financially support public broadcasting in one way or another, but in strong democracies, even these media outlets enjoy strong editorial independence from the government.
An independent press acts as a powerful check against all forms of government, ...

| | | | | Seventeenth Amendment: Encyclopedia II - United States Congress - Checks and balances The constitution provides certain checks and balances among the three branches of the federal government. The influence of Congress on the presidency has varied from one period to another; it depends largely on the leadership and the political influence of the President. The authors of the Constitution expected the greater power to lie with Congress and that is one reason they are described in Article One. Under the first half-dozen Presidents, power seems to have been evenly divided between the President and Congress, in part because early Presidents large ...

| | | | | Seventeenth Amendment: Encyclopedia II - Separation of powers - Criticisms In parliamentary systems such as the United Kingdom the three "powers" are not officially separated. However, this has not threatened British stability, because the strong traditions of that system serve a similar purpose. In contrast, many countries which have adopted separation of powers (especially in Latin America) have suffered from instability (coups d'etat, military dictatorships etc.). Some observers believe that no obvious case exists in which such instability was prevented by the separation of powers. The existence of a strong inde ...

| | | | | Seventeenth Amendment: Encyclopedia II - Pervez Musharraf - Peace overtures with India Musharraf was Chief of Army Staff at the time of Pakistani incursions into the Indian-held disputed territory of Kashmir (Kargil sector), in the summer of 1999. After suffering many reverses, the Pakistani Army was ordered to retreat resulting in a defeat. Some reports suggest that Musharraf retreated after huge pressure on the then Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif from the American President, who feared the conflict could turn into a nuclear catastrophe. However in a recent book co authored by ex-CENTCOM Commander in Chief, Anthony Zin ...

| | | | | Seventeenth Amendment: Encyclopedia II - Pervez Musharraf - Recent developments Recently The Washington Post has reported that General Musharraf remarked in an interview with one of their correspondents that rape in Pakistan has become a "moneymaking concern," referring to the visit to America of gang-rape victim Mukhtaran Bibi. He then went on to exclaim that "a lot of people say if you want to go abroad and get a visa for Canada or citizenship and be a millionaire, get yourself raped." The comments, though denied by Musharraf, brought worldwide condemnation and sparked protests in Pakistan. The Washington Post, in response to Musharraf's denials, made ...

Musharraf initially answered the question at face value by initially insinuating that the Pakistani people do not understand what the correct thing to do is on the international stage so that is why he is singled out, though afterwards sensing the ...

Following his coup in 1999, US President Bill Clinton called Musharraf to express his concern [2] about the coup and his desire for stability in South Asia. Instead of returning President Clinton's call Musharraf called Marine Corps General Anthony C. Zinni who was serving as the then head of CENTCOM (Middle East). Addressing hi ...

Pervez Musharraf - Support for Bush administration's 'War on terror'.
Following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the United States, Secretary of State Colin Powell and other administration officials met with Musharraf. Musharraf sided with the United States against the Taliban government in Afghanistan. Musharraf's reversal of policy and help to the U.S. military was critical. U.S. bombing rapidly overthrew the Taliban regime.

| | | | | Seventeenth Amendment: Encyclopedia II - Pervez Musharraf - Controversy over being both President and military head A pro-Musharraf party, the PML-Q, won a plurality in the elections of October 2002, and formed a majority coalition with independents and allies such as the MQM. Nevertheless, the opposition parties effectively deadlocked the National Assembly, refusing to accept the legitimacy of Musharraf's authority. In December 2003, as part of a compromise with the main Islamist opposition group, the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal, General Musharraf said he would step down as Army Chief by January 1, 2005. In return, the MMA agreed to support a constitutional amendment that would retroactively legalize Musha ...
