Federalism as a Metaphor in the Constitutional Politics of Public Administration.
O'Brien, David M.
Public Administration Review, v49 n5 p411-19 Sep-Oct 1989
Federalism is sometimes a metaphor for states' sovereignty, rather than appreciated as part of the political structure and process created by the Constitution of the United States. The author argues that "federalism" was redefined during the founding period to disassociate it from the discredited idea of states' sovereignty. (Author/JOW)
