The Territorial Dimension of Politics: Within, Among, and Across Nations
This comparative study examines the dialectical tensions between global and regional interdependence and the fragmentation of humankind into territorial entities. Political authority may remain territory-bound, but borders increasingly are penetrated by pollutants, individuals, noncentral governments in search of foreign trade and investment, and transnational corporations, as well as the traditional exchanges of trade, media, and culture. The re…

State Constitutional Law in Comparative Perspective
Can the existence and modifications of state constitutions be viewed as being among the nourishing fountains of federalism? A comparative analysis suggests two caveats. While in the United States and Switzerland both the birth and subsequent modification of state constitutions confirm a two-way traffic in federal practices between federal and state governments, in other systems, though labeled “federations,” state constitutions rarely reflect pol…
Dyadic Federations and Confederations
This article focuses on the thirteen-odd bicommunal polities in which two, and only two, distinct communities dominate the political arena. The concept of a bicommunal polity is analytical rather than statistical. Permanent asymmetry characterizing the two components makes a simple majoritarian formula for decisionmaking processes unacceptable. What other decisional frameworks have a greater chance for success: federalism, federalism with a heavy…
The territorial dimension of politics within, among, and across nations
Consociational Cradle of Federalism
Except for the time of its painful—consociational—birth, federalism in its theory and practice does not entail a rejection of a majoritarian mode of decisionmaking. Differently at different times on different issues decisional modes will most probably vary along a continuum from consociationalism to majority rule. When the governing elites adopt consociational practices, with regard to some issues, such practices result from factors other than th…
The International Dimension of Subnational Self-Government
In recent decades, complex interdependence as well as domestic issues have encouraged many constituent governments of larger national polities to assert an international competence of their own, primarily in matters touching upon their respective jurisdictions, such as trade promotion, foreign investment, employment and rights of foreign workers, environmental and energy issues, and tourism. Two forms of the resulting paradiplomacy are identified…

National Constitutions: A Functional Approach
This is an era of new nations and new goals and consequently of new constitutions.1 Both old and new nations seem today exceedingly busy translating their ferment and ambitions into chapters, articles, subheadings, and paragraphs in their new or drastically revised constitutions. More than two-thirds of existing 140-odd constitutions were drafted and adopted in past two decades. Others are in process of substantial rewriting or their fundamental …

A "Loyal" Satellite: The Case of Czechoslovakia
Several factors explain the almost complete absence of drama on the Czech political scene: a relatively high standard of living, the pragmatism of the Communist leadership, and the sophisticated sobriety of their opponents reared in the tradition of democracy and its nonviolent methods of action. Within this framework some minor changes have already occurred and still may. Any sub stantial change in the Czechoslovak orientation continues to be se…

Bonapartist Unity of Eastern Europe
The seven comrade-republics of central and eastern Europe attempt to present the West and their own people with a picture of uniformity in institutions, identity of doctrine, and unity of purpose. They claim to be the shop window of a new, harmonious, classless society which, thanks to the socialist science, has succeeded in solving most of the problems of the bourgeois past, such as national intolerance, social injustice and unemployment, econom…
The February Coup in Czechoslovakia
The Stalinists consider parliaments to be only schools for extra-parliamentary means of struggle. Were the Czechoslovak democratic leaders aware of this attitude while cooperating with the Communists both in the Parliament and Government of Czechoslovakia after 1945? If they were, what countermeasures did they devise? Even if the daily political fight over party or local issues necessarily narrowed their horizon, responsible democratic leaders ha…
The Strategy of Communist Infiltration: Czechoslovakia, 1944–48
Between 1944 and 1948, six European countries experienced Communist seizures of power. Three were enemies and three friends and allies of Soviet Russia during the war; four were Slav countries; five were predominantly peasant with some remnants of feudalism; with the exception of industrial Czechoslovakia, their prewar record in democratic government was far from exemplary. In all of them, however, the Communists were successful.What were the com…
