Solution

In a liberal democracy, ‘balance’ refers to the distribution of power among different branches of government (executive, legislature, judiciary) and between various sectors of society. It ensures that no single institution or group becomes too powerful. This balance is maintained through legal frameworks, checks and balances, public participation, and an active civil society. It is essential for protecting rights, ensuring justice, and maintaining democratic stability.
