Abstract:
|
This paper attempts to demonstrate that although multi-national federations
may have a poor track-record, the standard explanations of their difficulties, especially
those advanced in much recent US political science, are not compelling. The conditions
which facilitate but do not guarantee successful democratic multi-national federations are
(i) the presence of a Staatsvolk; (ii) consociational governance at the center of the
federation; (iii) authentic democratic institutions; (iv) ‘voluntary’ or ‘holding together
origins; & (v) prosperity. Policy recommendations on federal design outside the USA that
are based on US mono-national federalism are profoundly inappropriate. |
