Description

Exploring Federalism by Daniel J. Elazar is a comprehensive analysis of federal forms of government, tracing its historical development and exploring how it has been employed to promote workable governmental systems.

The author examines the elements of federalism as a basis of political association, describing how it defines political justice, shapes behavior, and directs individuals toward civic synthesis. Elazar also scans contemporary federal systems, explaining why federalism is resurfacing as a significant force in modern politics.

Through its covenantal foundations, Elazar argues that federalism is an idea with profound implications for understanding justice and the origins of political society, making this book a valuable resource for those interested in political science and history.
