Answer: B. the principle of limited government.
Limited government is a term used in political philosophy that refers to a system in which the government does not enjoy absolute power. This can be a consequence of two different restrictions. One option is that the government is assumed to have no power, except certain duties given to it by the people. The other is that the power the government is assumed to have is limited and regulated by law. An example of this law is the Constitution as ratified in 1788. This constitution ensured that the government could not get involved in all affairs. Its powers were restricted by law and the power of other institutions.
