Understanding Federalism: Unity & Diversity

Federalism promotes unity while accommodating diversity, with each tier of government having its own jurisdiction and constitutionally guaranteed authority. Examples include 'Coming Together Federations' like the U.S.A. and Switzerland, and 'Holding Together Federations' like India and Spain. Changes to the federal structure cannot be made unilaterally, and courts serve as arbiters in disputes.
