Book Synopsis Routledge Handbook of Regionalism & Federalism by : John Loughlin
Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Regionalism & Federalism written by John Loughlin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 960 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost all states are either federal or regionalized in some sense. It is difficult to find a state that is entirely unitary and the Routledge Handbook of Regionalism and Federalism necessarily takes in almost the entire world. Both federalism and regionalism have been subjects of a vast academic literature mainly from political science but sometimes also from history, economics, and geography. This cutting edge examination seeks to evaluate the two types of state organization from the perspective of political science producing a work that is analytical rather than simply descriptive. The Handbook presents some of the latest theoretical reflections on regionalism and federalism and then moves on to discuss cases of both regionalism and federalism in key countries chosen from the world’s macro-regions. Assembling this wide range of case studies allows the book to present a general picture of current trends in territorial governance. The final chapters then examine failed federations such as Czechoslovakia and examples of transnational regionalism - the EU, NAFTA and the African Union. Covering evolving forms of federalism and regionalism in all parts of the world and featuring a comprehensive range of case studies by leading international scholars this work will be an essential reference source for all students and scholars of international politics, comparative politics and international relations.

Book Synopsis Federalism and Second Chambers by : Wilfried Swenden
Download or read book Federalism and Second Chambers written by Wilfried Swenden and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of comparative federalism asserts that federations require a second chamber for the representation of regional interests in central law-making. Yet there has been little systematic analysis of the contribution of second chambers in parliamentary federations to this task. The main purpose of this book is to demonstrate to what extent the two strongest parliamentary second chambers, the Australian Senate and the German Bundesrat are linked to the federal structures in which they are embedded. The study analyzes the contribution of the members of these second chambers in advancing interests that are linked to the regional constituents whom they represent or to the collective fiscal or administrative interests of a regional government with whom they are associated. The analysis underscores the largely 'executive' character of intergovernmental relations in parliamentary federations, a feature that corresponds with the composition of the German Bundesrat, but not of the Australian Senate. In the concluding chapter some preliminary observations are made as to whether our findings also generate interesting insights for the larger group of parliamentary second chambers in federal or quasi-federal states, such as the Belgian, Spanish and Canadian Senates, the UK House of Lords and the Indian Raiya Sabha.
Download or read book Federalism written by Cheryl Saunders and published by HSRC Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Federalism: The Australian Experience offers readers a first-hand insight into one of the oldest federations in the world by an Australian expert, Prof Cheryl Saunders. The Australian Constitution is approaching its centenary and it is expected that students of political science, constitutional law, fiscal federalism and practitioners will in the years to come show a growing interest in how the constitution and practice are adapting to the demands of the 21st century. From a South African point of view, studies on Australian federalism have been somewhat neglected over the years. This is unfortunate and we hope that this publication will generate more interest in the subject. Some of the issues that could be of interest to South African researchers are for instance the treatment of indigenous people and efforts to accommodate their demands for land; the operation of the Commonwealth Grants Commission and its impact on policy, and the functioning of intergovernmental relations between the federal and state governments and also between state and local governments and between state governments themselves.

Book Synopsis Local Government in Australia by : Bligh Grant
Download or read book Local Government in Australia written by Bligh Grant and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-06 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a general introduction to and analysis of the history, theory and public policy of Australian local government systems. Conceived in an international comparative context and primarily from within the discipline of political studies, it also incorporates elements of economics and public administration. Existing research tends to conceptualise Australian local government as an element of public policy grounded in an 'administrative science' approach. A feature of this approach is that generally normative considerations form only a latent element of the discussions, which is invariably anchored in debates about institutional design rather than the normative defensibility of local government. The book addresses this point by providing an account of the terrain of theoretical debate alongside salient themes in public policy.

Book Synopsis Federalism in Action by : Richard Cullen
Download or read book Federalism in Action written by Richard Cullen and published by Gaunt. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Prime Minister has called for revision of the balance of power between the national and state governments in Australia. In Canada, in the wake of Meech Lake, the future of the country is under debate. In both, a re-arrangement of responsibilities of the two levels of government is firmly on the political agenda. In this book, the author examines the nature and effect of the federal systems of Australia and Canada. He does so by a detailed analysis of the conduct and outcome of one of the most significant intergovernmental disputes of the past 40 years - the battle for control of the offshore waters with their potential bonanza through petroleum exploration. Despite the parallels of size, economy, constitution and cultural and social mix, the federal systems of the two countries have produced divergent outcomes reached by different routes. In Canada, the power of regionalism has dominated the outcome so that there are a series of provincial regimes without any consistent national focus - a reflection of the relatively weak sense of Canadian national identity. In Australia, in contrast, the debate has been characterised by a national focus. The states have emphasised technical legal arguments rather than federal issues, and the dominance of the Commonwealth government in the dispute raises again the question: can or should federalism survive in Australia?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This topical book analyses the practice of negotiating constitutional demands by regional and dispersed national minorities in eight multinational systems. It considers the practices of cooperation and litigation between minority groups and central institutions in Australia, Britain, Canada, New Zealand, Italy, Spain, and the U.S. and includes an evaluation of the implications of the recent Catalan, Puerto Rican and Scottish referenda. Ultimately, the author shows that a flexible constitution combined with a versatile constitutional jurisprudence tends to foster institutional cooperation and the recognition of the pluralistic nature of modern states
Book Synopsis The Ashgate Research Companion to Federalism by : Ann Ward
Download or read book The Ashgate Research Companion to Federalism written by Ann Ward and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive research companion examines the theory, practice and historical development of the principle of federalism from the ancient period to the contemporary world. It provides a range of interpretations and integrates theoretical and practical aspects of federalism studies more fully than is usually the case. The volume identifies and examines nascent conceptions of the federal idea in ancient and medieval history and political thought before considering the roots of modern federalism in the ideas of a number of important European political theorists of the sixteenth through eighteenth centuries. The contributors focus on the development and institutionalization of the principle of federalism in the American Republic and examine the historical development and central policy debates surrounding European federalism. The final sections investigate contemporary debates about theories of federalism and regional experiences of federalism in a global context including Africa, India, Australia, the Middle East, and North and South America. The scope and range of this volume is unparalleled; it will provide the reader with a firm understanding of federalism as issues of federalism promise to play an ever more important role in shaping our world.
