Multinational federations rest on the coexistence of two or more
nations within a single polity. Within these federations, minority
nations play a significant role as their character differs from the
other building blocks of the federation. This edited volume offers
a comprehensive comparison of two such minority nations - Quebec in
Canada and Wallonia in Belgium - which exemplifies many dimensions,
themes and issues highly resonant to the study of federalism and
regionalism across the globe. Quebec and Wallonia have experienced
several decades of federal dynamics where both regions have had to
find their way as a minority nation in a multinational federation.
For those studying federalism and regionalism their importance lies
in a number of characteristics, but principally in the fact of
these minority nations have transformed into mini-states with fully
fledged legislative powers within their federation. This book seeks
to study the specific dynamics within these small worlds and
between them and the rest of the federation. This text will be of
key interest to students and scholars of federalism, nationalism
and regionalism, comparative politics and policies, political ideas
and social movements.
