Which of the following is/are true as to the evolution of Federalism?
I. In the formative stages of development, the dominant operative concept was that of competitive federalism
II. Formative stages were marked by inter-governmental disputes
III. Constituent units of federal systems were wary of center’s powers
IV. Cooperative Federalism preceded competitive federalism as the initial model in the formative stages
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
In the classical evolution of federal systems, the formative stages were dominated by competitive (dual) federalism, marked by inter-governmental disputes and constituent units guarding their autonomy against central power. Cooperative federalism developed later as interdependence and welfare responsibilities grew, rather than preceding competitive federalism as the initial model.
