AP US Government
Unit 1 – Foundations of American Democracy
Topic 1.9
What is one key distinction between dual federalism and cooperative federalism?
Cooperative federalism involves only the national government, whereas dual federalism includes both levels of government.
In cooperative but not dual federalism, local law enforcement agencies hold supreme authority over all other forms of governance on a given issue or policy area.
Only dual federalism allows for sharing of powers between national and state bodies.
Dual federalism sees the national and state governments as distinct entities providing separate services, while cooperative federalism recognizes their roles as intertwined and collaborative.
