Edited by Gordon DiGiacomo and Maryantonett Flumian, this book argues that the federal government is best placed to respond to issues of national interest and create effective policy." "With contributions from Gordon DiGiacomo, Michael D. Behiels, Brooke Jeffrey, Cheryl N. Collier, Maryantonett Flumian and Inger Weibust, the book analyzes the federal government's recent deferential approach to intergovernmental relations and condemns their submissiveness. They locate the origin of this approach in the ambivalent attitudes of the country's founders and in short-sighted electoral objectives. They show how it has hampered federal politics and administration, creating a federal government both unwilling and unable to assume leadership." "For the case against centralization, look for the Case for Decentralized Federalism edited by Ruth Hubbard and Gilles Paquet, also published by the University of Ottawa Press."--BOOK JACKET. 410 0$aGovernance series ;$v26.$x1487-3052 606 $aGouvernement federal$zCanada 606 $aDecentralisation administrative$zCanada 606 $aFederal government$zCanada 606 $aDecentralization in government$zCanada 615 6$aGouvernement federal 615 6$aDecentralisation administrative 615 0$aFederal government 615 0$aDecentralization in government 676 $a352.2/830971 701 $aFlumian$b Maryantonett$f1953-$0894890 701 $aDiGiacomo$b Gordon$0894891 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155521903321 996 $aThe Case for Centralized Federalism$91999333 997 $aUNINA
