Examine the similarities between the Uks devolution and Us Federal System
Devolution is the decentralisation of governmental power, which means that power is given
away from the central Government to smaller more local Government. On the other hand
the federal federalism, mode of political organization that unites separate states or other
polities within an overarch political system in a way that allows each to maintain its own
identity
First of all it can be argued that both devolution and the Federal System in America have a
central power. The centralised power in the Uk lies in parliament in Westminster and the
American one in the Federal Government. However, the Americans have got a central
federal Government, as there is a defined relationship between the states and the central
Government. The Uk on the other hand has got a unitary system, which means that the Uks
parliamentary sovereignty lies in parliament. It can also be said that in both congress and
parliament main bits of legislation is being passed due to the power given to Westminster
and Congress
Secondly it can be argued that devolution and the federal system increases representation
amongst the people in the Uk and the US. In the Uk power is given due to devolution to
ensure that the ‘regions’, such as Scotland and Northern Ireland are better represented. In
America part of the power is given to the states in order to limit the Governments power as
the founding fathers didn’t want one body to become to powerful. Furthermore, the power
was handed to the states in order to be able to ratify any constitutional amendments. The
Power available to the states also increase representation significantly, as they have the
ability to cope with regional issues and allow legislation, they think is beneficial for their
states.
Lastly it can be argued the Uks devolution and the Us federal system are the same as It gives
the regions and the states its own identity. If you look at the Uk you can clearly see that
Scotland and northern Ireland always stays in the back of the Uk. However with greater
power it is able to be seen and recognised in the world for the things it has done, such as
coping with covid. The same counts for the states in the us, which are mostly shadowing the
Government, but a greater amount if power allows them to give them their own identity, as
there are able to make their own rules and become in a way independent from the central
Government.
