Federalism, Self-Organization and the Dissolution of the State

The unitary nation-state is showing increasing signs of declining importance, and the most desirable alternative is not likely to be world government but rather an increasing devolution of power within increasingly federalized states. Federalism today seems almost quaint — a charming and sometimes irritating holdover from the political past, when Americans saw themselves more as residents of particular states than of the US as a whole. Its reputation was not enhanced when its rhetoric was used by state leaders seeking to defend the most distasteful and exploitative practices against their own citizens, as was long the case in the American South
