Comparative Federalism: A Pluralist Exploration (Federalism and Internal Conflicts). This item is unavailable.Comparative Federalism: A Pluralist Exploration (Federalism and Internal Conflicts)

This edited volume provides a solid yet accessible set of contributions for students, specialists and practitioners of federalism. It also reflects a commitment to normalising the connection between federal studies and scholarship on pluralism and diversity management. To shed light on a specific theme through a rigorous and comprehensive approach, most chapters compare at least two federal systems in connection with a given institutional matter or area of public policy.
