Includes bibliographical references. / It is not simply enough to have a separation of powers written on paper. In this paper I shall look at the pragmatic approach adopted by the Constitutional Court when adjudicating upon executive and legislative power in order to ensure its institutional security and legitimacy. I shall evaluate throughout this paper how the lack of sufficiently and consistently formulating and articulating principles that guide the Constitutional Court’s own limits could actually undermine the Court’s legitimacy in our current political climate.
