Answer:

Separation of powers

Explanation:

This activist supports the separation of powers. The separation of powers is an idea that became popular during the Enlightenment period. During this time period, many philosophers were concerned with the connection between the power of the government and the rights of citizens. They believed that, in order to protect society, the government needed to be controlled. One way to do this was by dividing its power among various branches, and giving them the power to block the actions of the others.
