Abstract

The division of government power aims to prevent the concentration of power in a single institution, which can lead to arbitrariness, and to ensure that all citizens receive their rights. One key concept in power sharing is the trias politica, which divides state government powers into three types: Legislative, Executive, and Judiciary. Legislative power is the authority to make laws, Executive power is the authority to enforce laws, and Judicial power is the authority to uphold laws and administer justice. In Indonesia, the trias politica concept is implemented according to the constitution, evident in the separation of legislative, executive, and judicial powers. Despite this division, achieving the goals of the Indonesian state requires cooperation among these branches to allow for mutual exercise of powers. Although regulated by the 1945 Constitution, additional regulations are necessary to limit and further define these powers to prevent arbitrariness. The research employs a statutory and conceptual approach, utilizing secondary data. This data is analyzed using qualitative normative methods, involving the examination of legal norms, doctrines, and theories. The conclusions are drawn inductively from the analyzed data.
