Key feature of federation
Explanation:
- Unitary governments are in contrast to federations. Either there is just one level of government or the sub-units are subordinate to the central authority under a unitary system. In a federal system, however, the federal government cannot compel the state government to act.
- The state government has independent powers and is not accountable to the federal government. Both of these governments are answerable to the people in their own right. Let's take a look at some of the more important aspects of federalism:1] The government is divided into two or more levels (or tiers).
- Although several levels of government supervise the same people, each has its own JURISDICTION in terms of legislation, taxation, and administration.
- The constitution specifies the jurisdictions of the various levels or tiers of government. As a result, the existence and authority of each tier of government are guaranteed by the Constitution.
- One level of government cannot unilaterally amend the constitution's essential provisions. Both levels of government must agree on such reforms.
- Courts have the authority to interpret the constitution and the powers of various government levels. When conflicts emerge between different levels of government in the exercise of their separate authorities, the Supreme Court acts as an umpire.
- Each level of government's revenue sources are clearly defined to ensure its financial independence.
