In Search of a Proper Federal Balance Between the Two Orders of Government: The Case of German Federalism
There are, at present, a relatively large number of federal systems throughout the world, and the number is growing. Federal systems have a general common feature: they represent non-centralised and non-unitary political systems. However, they do not follow one uniform pattern; instead, they differ considerably, as concerns their specific form of political organisation.
Die föderale Staatsform in der Krise
Der deutsche Foderalismus ist ins Gerede gekommen. Dabei setzt die Kritik weniger am foderalen Charakter der Bundesrepublik an, sondern an der Realitat des deutschen foderalistischen Systems mit seinen ihm eigenen Nachteilen, die mit dem Begriff Politikverflechtung beschrieben werden.
Fascism and the right in Europe, 1919-1945
This new text places interwar European fascism squarely in its historical context and analyses its relationship with other right wing, authoritarian movements and regimes. Beginning with the ideological roots of fascism in pre-1914 Europe, Martin Blinkhorn turns to the problem-torn Europe of 1919 to 1939 in order to explain why fascism emerged and why, in some settings, it flourished while in others it did not. In doing so he considers not just the 'major' fascist movements and regimes of Italy and Germany but the entire range of fascist and authoritarian ideas, movements and regimes present in the Europe of 1919-1945.
