Separation of Powers:Separation of powers is a principle that divides governmental authority into three branches - legislative, executive, and judicial - each with its own distinct functions and responsibilities. Delegation often occurs between these branches as they assign specific tasks or powers to one another.
Bureaucracy:Bureaucracy refers to a system of government where administrative tasks and decision-making are carried out by non-elected officials. Delegation of powers is common within bureaucracies as different departments or agencies are assigned specific responsibilities.
Agency Capture: Agency capture occurs when regulatory agencies, which are delegated with the power to enforce laws and regulations, become influenced or controlled by the industries they are supposed to regulate. This can lead to conflicts of interest and undermine effective governance.
