Beskrivning

This book provides a comparative analysis of the structure, operation, and dynamics of Ibero-American federations. It carries out a systematic comparison of Argentinian, Brazilian, Mexican, and Spanish federalism in dialogue with international literature. It offers an analysis along several transversal themes and examines the main features of federal systems: the division of powers; fiscal federalism; bicameralism and intergovernmental relations; and judicial review. The book further explores how Ibero-American federations deal with challenges such as territorial inequality, ethnic and linguistic diversity, corruption, and democracy, and assesses the potential of these federations for laboratory federalism.An important contribution to comparative federalism literature, the book will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of federalism, political science, democracy, governance, law, and public administration. The insights of the book will also be of practical relevance to policymakers, government officials, and practitioners in federal and decentralizing systems.

Recensioner i media

“The Handbook of Federalism in Ibero-America is a highly welcomed work. The lack of comparative studies on these federations stands in contrast to the numerous publications on Northern federations. Most research concerning Ibero-American federations focuses on only one aspect. A systematic and comprehensive analysis is needed to fill this gap.”Marta Arretche, University of São Paulo, Brazil.“This team of international and local experts has done us a great service in putting together a comprehensive survey of an important but sometimes neglected group of federations, ones whose federal character can be intriguingly ambiguous.”Alan Fenna, Curtin University, Australia
