This compilation, The Making and Ending of Federalism, includes the main topics addressed by recognized experts on federalism at the Conference of the International Association of Federal Studies (IACFS) held in Innsbruck, Austria, on 28-30 October 2021. It analyzes how federal and quasi-federal systems are created and if there are common patterns or certain conditions that promote the emergence or the demise of federal systems, including case studies from Brazil, Spain, and Italy.
Direct Ancestors of Domer J. Huffman, Jr. by Domer J. Huffman, Jr B.A. If you built your family tree back for close to 1500 years, what would you find? Would you discover that you are descended from a long-forgotten celebrity? Could you trace your lineage back to ancient kings and nobility? How would it make you feel to know that in your veins runs the blood of the rulers of nations? Would you wake up every day with a renewed confidence and pride in all those who came before you and the future generations that you are helping to create and nurture? Domer J. Huffman, Jr B.A. spent twenty-five years compiling his genealogy, following the twists and turns of time all the way back to the seventh century. This book is the result of those long years of work. In addition, you’ll find dozens of songs penned by Mr. Huffman as well as some fascinating historical research on some of the more recent generations in the Huffman line.
The volume offers new and unexplored perspectives on federalism and its relationships with diversity accommodation. It represents the first structured attempt to use federal theory and practice to frame several phenomena of governance in the area of diversity management. Federalism is here tested as a theoretical and practical tool that may contribute to a better understanding of phenomena such as non-territorial autonomy, participatory democracy and legal pluralism. This volume unveils the theoretical potential of federalism in explaining complex pluralist legal systems: This theoretical function may be the 21st century dimension of federalism.

Wave phenomena are ubiquitous in nature. Their mathematical modeling, simulation and analysis lead to fascinating and challenging problems in both analysis and numerical mathematics. These challenges and their impact on significant applications have inspired major results and methods about wave-type equations in both fields of mathematics. The Conference on Mathematics of Wave Phenomena 2018 held in Karlsruhe, Germany, was devoted to these topics and attracted internationally renowned experts from a broad range of fields. These conference proceedings present new ideas, results, and techniques from this exciting research area.
How can subnational governments best integrate climate change considerations across policy areas? Which factors contribute to successful integration? With a specific focus on transport, spatial planning policies, and energy and water in selected cases located at the border of the Alpine region between Italy and Austria, this volume shows that coordination (vertical and horizontal), public participation and information, leadership, and dedicated funding play fundamental and interlinked roles in climate change policy integration.
This book examines different approaches by which states characterised by federal or decentralized arrangements reconcile equality and autonomy.
