En Amérique latine, depuis le début des années quatre-vingt, deux phénomènes majeurs, l'approfondissement de la crise financière-économique et l'évolution démocratique, ont renouvelé les termes et les enjeux d'un débat désormais généralisé sur les rapports entre pouvoirs centraux, pouvoirs régionaux et pouvoirs locaux. En France, dans la même période, mais dans un contexte politique différent, la discussion puis l'application des lois de décentralisation ont répondu à la volonté des sociétés locales de prendre une plus grande part dans la détermination de leur destin et de celui de leur territoire. Démocratisation et modernisation, modernisation et démocratisation sont ainsi devenues, tant en France (en Europe devrait-on dire) qu'en Amérique latine les mots-clés, les références incontournables pour toute réflexion sur les voies et moyens permettant d'affronter les mutations imposées par la compétition internationale.

Congressional Preemption provides an in-depth account of the use of preemption powers by Congress to either partially or completely remove regulatory authority from state and local governments in a wide variety of fields. Author Joseph F. Zimmerman exposes the inadequacies of the two current theories of United States federalism—dual and cooperative—by exploring the impact of Congress' frequent use of its preemption powers since 1965. While the dual and cooperative federalism theories retain a degree of explanatory power, Zimmerman considers why they do not explain the profound systemic changes produced by congressional preemption. Other topics covered include congressional use of conditional grants-in-aid, crossover sanctions, tax credits, tax sanctions, and partial and complete redemption; the theory of political safeguards of federalism; and the Blackmun Thesis, which encourages states to seek relief from preemption statutes in Congress and not the courts. The book concludes with postulates of a broader theory of federalism and recommendations addressed to Congress to reinvigorate the federal system.

Higher Education in Federal Countries: A Comparative Study is a unique study of higher education in nine federal countries--the United States, Canada, Australia, Germany, Mexico, Brazil, Russia, China and India. In this book, leading international scholars discuss the role of federalism and how it shapes higher education in major nation-state actors on the world stage. The editors develop an overarching comparative analysis of the dynamics of central and regional power in higher education, and the national case studies explain how each federal and federal-like higher education system has evolved and how it functions in what are highly varied contexts.
