It deliberates on the changing socio-economic realities, challenges facing the existing structures of governance, degrees of consociationalism, and the growing aspirations of people in South Asia and Europe. Through case studies from Greece, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Spain, France, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Nepal, Maldives, Bhutan, and India, the volume focuses on critical issues relating to cooperative federalism - its complexities, institutional dilemmas, and trends in South Asia and Europe. It discusses a variety of themes, including federal-state relations; cooperative governance; constitution; multiculturalism, fiscal relations, democratization, devolution of powers, consociationalism, and global citizenship to analyse the complexities of the existing federal polities in South Asia and Europe. It further emphasizes the need to strike a balance between the federal government and the constituent units in these regions. Topical and lucid, this book will be of interest to teachers, scholars, and researchers of political science, comparative government and politics, federalism, South Asian politics, European politics, governance studies, and political studies"-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed Subject Central-local government relations -- South Asia Central-local government relations -- Europe Intergovernmental cooperation -- South Asia Intergovernmental cooperation -- Europe Decentralization in government -- South Asia Decentralization in government -- Europe Federal government -- South Asia Federal government -- Europe Form Electronic book Author Vinod, M.
