This book provides a comprehensive and detailed examination of the
successes and failures of federalism in a diverse range of
multi-ethnic polities and societies.
It offers excellent coverage of the experiences of a wide range of
contemporary states with specially commissioned contributions from
established authorities.
An introductory chapter introduces the reader to the nature of
federations, the political philosophies that underpin federalism,
the characteristics of federal formations, and highlights some of
the theories as to why this system of government has failed in some
cases to provide ethno-regional stability. A concluding chapter
draws upon the findings and examines the prospects for federalism
in the light of the acceleration towards greater economic
interdependency and local political fragmentation, in the post-Cold
War world.
