Question

State any three important features of Federalism.

Answer 1

Hi there,

Following are the three key features of federalism;

1. Different tiers of government govern the same citizens, but each tier has its own jurisdiction in specific matters of legislation, taxation and administration.
2. The fundamental provisions of the constitution cannot be unilaterally changed by one level of government. Such changes require the consent of both the levels of government.
3. The federal system thus has dual objectives: to safeguard and promote unity of the country, while at the same time accommodate regional diversity.

Thanks for asking

Answer 2

The following are the main characteristics of Federalism:

1. In the federal arrangement of management, the government consists of two or more tiers or levels.

2. The different tiers of management govern similarly residents. But, every tier holds its individual jurisdiction in special matters of law, money-gathering and management.

3. Nation's Constitution defines the separate jurisdictions of the distinct tiers of management.

Therefore, the presence and power of each tier get constitutionally secured.
