Constitutionalism

Explanation:

Constitutionalism is a doctrine based on the idea that the government’s power is defined by a body of laws.

The Rule of Law establishes that nobody is above the law.

The separation of powers among the legislative branch that makes the laws, the executive branch that applies and enforces them, and the judicial branch that interprets the law. The checks and balances system allows each branch to restrict other branches to deter any abuse of power.

panem is a communist totalitarian dictatorship where all the resources and how they are allocated belongs to the capitol. the districts exist only to provide goods and services for the capital and most of the citizens live in poverty. it is a police state where the "peacekeepers" use force and threats to keep the people under control. dissent is outlawed and those who disobey the law are executed, flogged, or turned into avoxes. the games are another means in which the ruling elite in the capitol exert their power over the districts. when reading the books i drew parallels between panem and the soviet union and north korea. in no way is panem capitalist. the people in the capitol are wealthy but the majority of them are involved in the government somehow. it was the same way in the former soviet union where bigwigs in the communist party and high ranking government officials were given access to goods, services, medical treatments not available to the general public. if you think panem has a capitalist economy you need to brush up on your economics.
