Malcolm M. Feeley and Edward Rubin expose the ambiguities of modern federalism, offering a powerful but generous treatise on the modern salience of the term.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e “ Malcolm Feeley and Edward Rubin have published an excellent book.”\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003e—\u003c\/i\u003e Sanford Levinson, University of Texas at Austin \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e “ At last, an insightful examination of federalism stripped of its romance.

Significantly expanding on their earlier pathbreaking work, they have explained the need for a theory of federalism and provided one.
