From Quasi-Federation to Quasi-Confederacy? The Transformation of India's Party System
The article begins by explaining and classifying the national, state, and registered political parties that have proliferated in India since 1980 (when 36 parties contested). It then proposes that the number be reduced. The designation “national party” should be confined to parties that are nationwide in appeal. Registered parties should be confined to state elections. State parties contesting national elections should be required to join an alli…
Challenges to India's Centralized Parliamentary Federalism
Indian federalism has become less centralized as a result of popular pressures, the breakdown of Congress dominance, and the fragmentation of political parties. Economic challenges to cooperative federalism emerge from market reforms, the search for investments, and the World Bank structural adjustment plans adopted in selected states. Devolution of economic decision-making to the states aggravates fiscal crises by facilitating populist political…
Federalism, Federative Systems, and Federations
This article explores “federalism” as an abstract concept of political theory like liberalism and socialism, and “federation” as a descriptive term connoting a system of government. The term “federative systems” connotes the genus of which federations are a species. “Federalism” as a concept has important implications for comparative studies of federations such as the United States, Canada, and India. Canada and India began as quasi-federations a…

From Executive to Legislative Federalism? The Transformation of the Political System in Canada and India
Canada and India have hybrid systems of government. Both experienced constitutional crises in the 1970's. These crises have usually been treated as sui generis. It is the hypothesis of this article that the crises raise fundamental questions regarding the very nature of such systems, which are based on “parliamentary federalism,” a political system invented in Canada to provide strong central government. This hybrid system combines two classical …

Ce rapport invite les politologues à prendre quelque distance à l'égard des standards américains et à conserver plus de liberté à l'égard des engouements à la mode, chacun devant davantage s'affirmer comme individu plutôt que comme membre de telle école ou génération particulière. Si la science politique canadienne a bien accueilli le renouveau des techniques, elle devrait par contre mieux distinguer ce qui constitue des idées nouvelles de ce qui…
The Government and Politics of a Developing University
In Canada , more perhaps than in any other country, the 1960's have seen such a quantitative change in higher education that it must be judged a qualitative change as well. A significant number of new universities, including my own York University, Toronto, have come into being, and most recently a system of community colleges has been created to cope with the large number of students who wish to proceed beyond high school but who are unable to o…
