Dr. Maxwell Cameron argues that constitutional states are not weaker because their powers are separated. They are generally stronger because they solve collective action problems rooted in speech and communication. His book, Strong Constitutions: Social-Cognitive Origins of the Separation of Powers, is a must read for anyone interested in the separation of powers, its origin, evolution, and consequences.
