What are the principles of federalism?
Interesting. Can you give me an example of how federalism operates in the United States?
In the United States, the Constitution divides powers between a central government and state governments. This is known as the principle of "dual sovereignty." Examples of state powers include maintaining public health and safety, regulating commerce within state borders, and managing elections. The central government, on the other hand, has powers such as managing foreign relations, regulating interstate commerce, and providing for the national defense.
